The document discusses compound sentences and their components. A compound sentence contains two independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction. There are seven coordinating conjunctions known as FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so). Examples of compound sentences are provided along with the identification of their simple sentences and coordinating conjunction. An exercise is included for the reader to identify these components in additional compound sentences.
