Explanation:

1. A simple sentence is constituted of a single independent clause. It has a subject and a predicate, and it expresses a complete thought.

2. A compound sentence is formed by joining two independent clauses. We connect them by using a coordinating conjunction - for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so.

3. A complex sentence is formed by joining an independent clause and a dependent one. A dependent clause needs the independent one to give it context, so that it makes sense. Subordinating conjunctions should be used, such as when, where, if, though, etc.

4. A compound-complex sentence is formed by two independent clauses and a dependent one, at least.
