CÁC KIỂU CÂU TRONG TIẾNG ANH

Câu ghép (compound sentences) là dạng câu được hình thành bởi 2 hoặc nhiều mệnh đề độc lập. Các mệnh đề này được nối với nhau bởi các từ nối (liên từ/trạng từ) hoặc dấu chấm phẩy (;).

Mệnh đề độc lập là mệnh đề có đầy đủ chủ ngữ, vị ngữ và luôn có nghĩa khi đứng một mình.

Ví dụ: It suddenly rained, so we got wet yesterday. (Trời đột nhiên mưa nên chúng tôi đã bị ướt vào hôm qua.)

→ Mệnh đề 1: It suddenly rained.

→ Mệnh đề 2: We got wet yesterday.

→ Từ nối: So

NHÓM 2: LIÊN TỪ NỐI + DANH TỪ/ CỤM DANH TỪ

 Because of + N = Due to + N = Owing to + N: Bởi vì
