 | INDEPENDENT CLAUSE: contains a subject and a predicate and stands alone as a
sentence.
Example: Lynn has a new bicycle. (This sentence has a subject, Lynn, a predicate has, and expresses a complete thought.)
Note: If two independent clauses are connected by a conjunction like and, but, or, or nor, the sentence is a compound sentence:
Example: Steve plays the drums, and Peter plays the tuba.
