A simple sentence is made up of one independent clause.
Example: Minh has some problems with his schoolwork.

A compound sentence is made up of two or more
independent clauses, and they are joined by:
- A coordinating conjunction: for, and, but, or, so
Example: Mai bought many books, for she likes reading.
- A conjunctive adverb: however, therefore, otherwise.
Example: Mark is hard-working; therefore, he usually gets
high scores on exams.
