Complicated sentences, as is well known, are structures that include more than one simple sentence. These structures are divided into three types:
- complex non-union (SBP),
- Complicated (BSC)
- Complicated sentences (NGN).
Each species has its own peculiarities, but their role in speech is similar: complex and complex sentences, as well as unionless sentences, make speech as informative as possible, allow you to convey different semantic relationships, express stylistic features of speech. MSP, SBP, SPP are most often used in book speech. For a conversational style, they are often cumbersome.
Complicated sentences are one of the most complex and diverse types of syntactic constructions.
They call the BSP such a syntactic construction in which the parts are connected by subordinate unions or union words. It follows from this that in NGN parts are not equivalent. The dependent part is called the subordinate clause. The part to which it submits is the main one. Union or union word is included in the subordinate clause. ( When he felt hot , Maxim went to the balcony. She did not come for the holiday, because her mood was spoiled .)
Parts of NGN are structurally and semantically related. It often happens that the main part is simply incomprehensible, and therefore cannot exist without the subordinate clause. (She felt that her stupid trick would still have consequences . I am the one to stop this, finally, this disgrace ).
Depending on the unions and the importance of the subordinate part, complex sentences are divided into types. Some philological schools divide the subordinate clauses into two groups: definitive and additional. However, most scholars have a different opinion, dividing complex sentences into 10 types according to the importance of subordinate clauses. It is this classification that is studied at school.
NGN with relative determinants answer the question (Which?). In them, the subordinate clauses are joined by unions (where, where, which, whose, etc.) or allied words (so that, as if, exactly, as if).
*Note. Union words are members of a sentence, unions are not.
Examples. From the apartment opposite, there were screams (what?) That did not allow to fall asleep. A plain was visible through the window (which one?), From now and then an incomprehensible rumble came from somewhere. I saw her so (what?), As if she had just left the photo.
Complicated sentences with subjunctive explanatory clauses for connecting parts use conjunctions (like what, what, like), allied words (who, where, how). The subordinate clauses in them answer the questions of cases: this is the main sign of the clauses of explanatory. (She again assured herself of (what?) That the delegation was delayed. She returned the kiss to the one (to whom?) Who had been waiting for this for so long. ).
Complicated subordinates of the mode of action (How? To what extent? How much?) Use conjunctions (like, exactly, etc.), allied words (how much). (He prepared as much (as much?) As time and his meager mind allowed. )
Accessory places (Where? Where?) Use allied words (where, there, where and the like) (I will live there (Where?), Where the sun dives into the sea every day .)
The adverbs of time (What time? How much?) Are added using relative words (until, when, before, etc.) (I will repeat until (How long? How much?) Until you remember. )
There are other types of complex sentences - these are subordinates with subordinate clauses.
• Conditions (I will forgive you (under what condition?) If you correct your mistake.)
• Reasons (I was very surprised for the reason that I was not ready for his trick.)
• Goals (I will be back so that we can make the world more beautiful. )
• Comparative (We were so delighted as if Vera was close to us. )
• Compliant (Everything was falling out of his hands, no matter how Senka tried. Despite the whisper that accompanied her everywhere, Nellie walked with her head held high.)
• Consequences (He shouted, so that the case took a bad turn. )
• Connecting (He was wrong, and hastened to admit voluntarily.)
