Sentences

Different types of sentence suit different purposes. Using a variety of sentence types is a key factor to effective writing.

Words, phrases and clauses

Words
A sentence is made up of words put together to do a certain job. Words are the smallest meaningful units of a sentence.
For example:
barks / dog / angry
Each of the above words work differently in a sentence:

barks is a verb – a word type that tells what a noun is doing or being

dog is a noun – a word type that names people, places, things and ideas

angry is an adjective – a word type that describes a noun

Words are linked to create a phrase to build up the sentence.

Phrases

A phrase is used in place of a word to give more information about it. A noun phrase is built around a noun, making the noun the head word of a noun phrase.

For example:

The angry dog.

In this noun phrase, the noun ‘dog’ is the head word.

A phrase that comes immediately before a verb is the verb’s subject. A phrase that follows a verb is the verb’s object.

The angry dog barks. – 'dog' is the subject

The angry dog barks at the postman at the door. – 'postman' is the object

Phrases are linked to a main verb to make a clause.

Clauses

A clause is one or more phrases linked to a verb that work very tightly together.

For example:

The angry dog barks.

In this clause - which could also be used as a sentence - the noun phrase is 'the angry dog' and the verb is 'barks'. The head word of the noun phrase is the noun ‘dog’.

Simple sentences

If there is a capital letter at the beginning of a clause and a full stop at the end, you have a sentence.
For example:
The angry dog barks.
This is a simple sentence. A simple sentence consists of one clause that has a subject and a verb.
A simple sentence puts across one simple idea. For example:
Rebecca sang.
There can also be several words in the verb. An example of a sentence with two words in the verb is:
It was raining.
An example of a sentence with three words in the verb is:
Sean has been running.
In each of the examples there is just one main verb and one idea. This is the simplest type of sentence and is usually very easy to understand.

Compound sentences

A compound sentence has at least two two major independent clauses.They can be joined by a semicolon, or a comma and coordinating conjunction, such as 'and', 'or' and 'but'.
For example:

It was cold, but we still went to town.

It was raining, and we stayed indoors.

This makes the two ideas equal in the sentence - if you take away one part of it, you are left with a simple sentence again. These are very common when speaking and they are not difficult to understand.

Here are three more examples of compound sentences with the connectives written in bold:

The couple walked down the road, and their neighbours waved from the house.

The dog came rushing in, so the cat ran upstairs.

My friend gave me a lift, because it was raining.

One advantage of compound sentences is that a writer can build more detail into their writing. However, one problem is that some writers can get carried away and write long rambling sentences.

For example:

My friend came round and said, "Do you want to get out of the house for a while?" and I did so we went to town and walked around for a bit and then some women came over who we knew from work so we started talking to them and then we felt hungry so we...

Remember, care needs to be taken when using connectives. Two in a sentence is usually enough, and they don't need to be used in every sentence.

Fragments

Sometimes writers don't use full sentences. Sentence fragments often help to emphasise a point, create drama or show surprise, but they are not complete sentences:

She looked as carefully as she could, but found nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Imagine this. You're trapped. It's dark. It's cold.

Try to consider how you can add impact to your own writing by using fragments instead of full sentences.

Complex sentences

A complex sentence communicates more than one idea, so it is like a compound sentence in a way. However, the ideas are not equal. This is because one part is like a simple sentence, so it can stand on its own. The other part can't - it needs something else to support it.
For instance, look at this sentence:
You can't persuade me to go to town, no matter how hard you try.
The first part could be a simple sentence - it stands on its own. However, the second part, 'no matter how hard you try', is not a simple sentence and it doesn't stand on its own. It needs something else to make sense.
We use complex sentences a lot when we speak, but it's important to use them in your writing too.
These are the most difficult sentences to get right.
Here is another example:
When I arrived the angry dog barked.
The main clause is 'the angry dog barked' because it has a subject and a verb and makes sense by itself.
The minor clause is 'When I arrived''. Although it is a clause with a subject and a verb, it doesn't make sense on its own. It needs a main clause.
You can add more minor clauses to make a more complex sentence.
When I arrived the angry dog barked because it was hungry.

Purpose of sentences

Sentences can be thought about in terms of their purpose. For example:
Statements
Statements tell us things.
These tend to be in school text books, in newspapers, or in an encyclopedia.
For example:

Paris is the capital of France.

Manchester United play at Old Trafford.

There are seven days in a week.

Questions

Questions ask us about something, or make us think about things.

For example:

What does TiPToP stand for?

When did the First World War end?

How much for a coffee?

Orders

Orders are also called commands. These tell us what to do, and are found in instructions, recipes and signs.

For example:

Put your litter in the bin.

Do not touch.

Next, take a small pinch of salt and mix it all together.

Exclamations

Exclamations are shouted out. You would hear these at a sporting event, in arguments, or if you told a joke.

For example:

Amazing!

Shut up!

Goal!

Variety of sentences

It is good to have a variety of sentences in your writing.
You can have short ones, and then some long ones... But as we have already seen, if they are all simple sentences, it gets boring and difficult to read. You should also use a mixture of questions and statements.
Imagine that you have been asked to give some advice to a friend who is being bullied. You would probably think of a few ideas very quickly:

Tell your family about it.

Don't suffer in silence.

Do something about it.

You could improve your work by adding other types of sentences. At the moment, it is just a list of orders. You could add questions, such as:

Why don't you talk to someone at school about it?

Do you know anyone else who is being bullied right now?

This pushes your friend to think about something.

It also gives them the opportunity to start talking about it.

Then you could add a statement or two, such as:

Bullying is more common than many people think.

The worst thing about being bullied is feeling alone.

If you combine these ideas and sentences, you will have an interesting and varied piece of writing. All you need to add are some connectives, such as 'and', 'but', 'so' or 'because'. Now you have writing that makes a real impact and which can offer advice as well as persuading people.

Here is an example:

Do you know anyone else who is being bullied right now? Why don't you talk to someone at school about it? Bullying is far more common than many people think and far more serious than many people imagine. In fact, it is one of the main reasons for pupils missing school. But the worst thing about being bullied is feeling alone. So don't suffer in silence, tell your family about it and do something now.

Variety of sentences task

You can see why variety is important by looking at this list below. It is taken from a story called You are now entering the human heart, by Janet Frame, and is actually one of her paragraphs broken down into simple sentences:

Her eyes faced the lighted exit.

I saw her fear.

The children were sitting down.

None of them had ever touched a live snake.

They were hushed with fear.

They were waiting for the drama to begin.

One or two looked afraid.

The attendant took a green snake out of a basket.

It was about three feet long.

He made a swift movement.

He draped the snake around the teacher's neck.

She did not have a chance to protest.

He stepped back to admire the sight.

He looked satisfied.

It doesn't really sound right. How could the writer change this to convey the drama of the situation? Look again at the sentences and decide what changes you could make, which ones you could join. Then reveal the version from the book below and compare your ideas.

Our Friendship

Our friendship started when my best friend came in as a new admission to our class. Both of us were hesitant to talk to each other at first, but gradually we developed a bond. I remember the first time my best friend tried to talk to me; I rolled my eyes because I thought there was no use and we wouldn’t hit it off. However, to my surprise, we became best friends by the end of the session year.

We learned so many things about each other and found out that our taste in music and fashion was so similar. Since then, there was no stopping us. We spent all our time together and our friendship became the talk of the class. We used to help each other out in studies and visited each other’s homes as well. We made sure to have lunch together on Sundays. We also used to watch movies and cartoons together.

On our summer break, we even went to summer camp together and made a lot of memories. Once during the summer holidays, she also accompanied me to my maternal grandparents’ home. We had a fabulous time there. Moreover, we even invented our own handshake which only both of us knew. Through this bond, I learned that family doesn’t end with blood because my best friend was no less than my family. Friendship is one relationship that you choose, unlike all other relationships.

How Cell Phones Are Affecting Our Communication

# data[].attributes.subject
How Cell Phones Are Affecting Our Communication

# data[].attributes.body
Cell phones are one of the most widely used and influential inventions of the modern era. They have enabled us to communicate with anyone, anywhere, at any time, with unprecedented convenience and speed. However, while cell phones have made communication more accessible and efficient, they have also negatively affected our communication skills and social interactions in various ways.

One of the main effects of cell phones on communication is that they reduce the quality and depth of face-to-face conversations. According to a study by Sherry Turkle, a sociologist at MIT, when people use cell phones during social interactions, they tend to talk about less meaningful topics, avoid eye contact, and express less empathy. This is because cell phones distract us from the present moment and make us more aware of the potential alternatives and interruptions that await us in the digital world. As Turkle writes, “We are tempted to think that our little ‘sips’ of online connection add up to a big gulp of real conversation. But they don’t”².

Another effect of cell phones on communication is that they diminish our ability to listen and pay attention to others. Cell phones create a constant expectation of being reachable and responsive, which can lead to multitasking and divided attention. For example, many people check their phones while driving, working, studying, or even having a conversation with someone else. This can result in missing important information, making mistakes, or offending others by showing a lack of interest or respect.

A third effect of cell phones on communication is that they alter the way we express ourselves and perceive others. Cell phones enable us to communicate through various modes, such as text messages, emojis, GIFs, voice calls, and video calls. However, these modes have different limitations and affordances that affect how we convey and interpret meaning. For example, text messages are often brief, informal, and ambiguous, which can lead to misunderstandings or misinterpretations. Emojis and GIFs are meant to supplement text messages by adding emotional cues, but they can also be vague or subjective. Voice calls and video calls can provide more verbal and nonverbal cues than text messages, but they can also suffer from poor quality, lagging, or interruptions.

In conclusion, cell phones have a significant impact on how we communicate with others. While they offer many benefits and opportunities for communication, they also pose many challenges and risks for our communication skills and social relationships. Therefore, we need to be mindful of how we use cell phones and balance them with other forms of communication that are more conducive to meaningful and empathic conversations.

Fast food is a phenomenon that most people in the world are familiar with. However, slow food is less well known. The name slow food is slightly deceptive as it is much more than the opposite of fast food. The slow food movement advocates more than just care and attention to what we eat. It offers an alternative to fast-paced modern life by encompassing the philosophy behind why and how we should eat by providing information on sourcing produce, methods of cooking and the positive social aspects of eating and sharing a meal.

What is Fast Food and slow food?

Fast foods are characterized as quick, easily accessible and cheap alternatives to home. They also tend to be high in saturated fat, sugar, salt and calories. The term fast food refers to quickly prepared food with low quality ingredients and preparation that is served in disposable packaging at franchised restaurant chains. It is often Cheap, low in nutritional value, and eaten "on the run".

On the other hand slow food is a system of values that is designed to combat the detrimental effects of fast food. Its whole ethos centres on the idea of "living an unhurried life, beginning at the table."
Among the key values it promotes and encourages are the extensive use of regional and local produce, traditional farming and cooking methods, and sharing the enjoyment of carefully and slowly prepared and cooked foods in the company of others all of which nurtures a healthy mind and body. Fast food is often eaten fast, which is often anti-social and bad for digestion. With slow food, a meal is made into a special event. During preparation of the food, people take time to relax and share a conversation, which extends well after the meal is finished.By eating and adopting the social attitude of slow food, both bodily and mental health can be improved much more so than a fast food diet.

The Slow Food Movement was formed in Italy in 1986 and has grown to around 83,000 members in 122 countries.

Lifestyle Benefits:

In addition, eating is made more enjoyable because of the sharing. Mealtimes have traditionally been a time when people can come together and not just share a meal, but bond. This makes for closer relationships with friends and family members that are happier because of the sharing.
Eating more slowly enables us to taste more. Fast food is designed to be eaten quickly, which is why it has concentrated flavors. However, the taste doesn't last long and is ultimately unsatisfying. Slow food on the other hand, is made with the best ingredients and produce which is packed full of natural flavors. When we eat slowly in relaxing surroundings, we experience more flavors, textures and aromas, and will gain new appreciation of our food.

Many people are surprised to learn that slower eating aids weight loss. The conditioned behavior of eating until we are full is a complex process that depends on how many times we chew, how long we eat for and the amount of food we eat. If we chew and eat more slowly and spend more time at the table, most people find that it takes less food to feel full.

Fast food is a phenomenon that most people in the world are familiar with. However, slow food is less well known. The name slow food is slightly deceptive as it is much more than the opposite of fast food. The slow food movement advocates more than just care and attention to what we eat. It offers an alternative to fast-paced modern life by encompassing the philosophy behind why and how we should eat by providing information on sourcing produce, methods of cooking and the positive social aspects of eating and sharing a meal.

What is Fast Food?

To understand what slow food really is, we need to understand what it is the antidote to: fast food. Typically, the term fast food refers to quickly prepared food with low quality ingredients and preparation that is served in disposable packaging at franchised restaurant chains, independent outlets and kiosks. It is often over-priced, low in nutritional value, and eaten "on the run".

It is frequently manufactured in an industrial environment, pre-packed, and then shipped to retailers where it can be reheated or cooked quickly. While some fast food is healthy, such as sushi, quick fried or grilled fresh meat and vegetables, baked potatoes, salads, fresh sandwiches, most is not. Common fast foods such as burgers, french fries, fish and chips, pizza and kebabs are often highly processed and contain large amounts of additives, are high in calories, trans fats, sugars and salts, and come in relatively small portions.

What is Slow Food?

Slow food is a system of values that is designed to combat the detrimental effects of fast food. Its whole ethos centres on the idea of "living an unhurried life, beginning at the table." The Slow Food Movement was formed in Italy in 1986 and has grown to around 83,000 members in 122 countries.

Among the key values it promotes and encourages are the extensive use of regional and local produce, traditional farming and cooking methods, and sharing the enjoyment of carefully and slowly prepared and cooked foods in the company of others all of which nurtures a healthy mind and body.

However, its remit also extends to the preservation of regional and cultural foods and ingredients such as plants, seeds, and domestic animals through programmes such as taste education, and offers support to those who wish to source and promote traditional, local high quality food that is more nourishing and tastier than fast food.

Health Benefits

By eating and adopting the social attitude of slow food, both bodily and mental health can be improved much more so than a fast food diet. Fast food providers, especially in the US, urge consumers to buy "Supersize" which has contributed to the problem of obesity, which increases the risk of high blood pressure, diabetes, blood diseases joint problems.

Fast food is often eaten fast, which is often anti-social and bad for digestion. With slow food, a meal is made into a special event. During preparation of the food, people take time to relax and share a conversation, which extends well after the meal is finished. Because slow food is made from the freshest, local ingredients and produce (often organic, hence free from manmade chemicals), diners have peace of mind knowing where their food came from and that it provides high nutritional value.

Many people are surprised to learn that slower eating aids weight loss. The conditioned behaviour of eating until we are full is a complex process that depends on how many times we chew, how long we eat for and the amount of food we eat. If we chew and eat more slowly and spend more time at the table, most people find that it takes less food to feel full.

Lifestyle Benefits

In addition, eating is made more enjoyable because of the sharing. Mealtimes have traditionally been a time when people can come together and not just share a meal, but bond. This makes for closer relationships with friends and family members that are happier because of the sharing.
