Simple sentences have one clause: "Rain fell." Compound sentences join clauses with a conjunction (and, but, or): "Rain fell and the streets emptied." Complex sentences have a main clause and a subordinate clause: "Although it was late, she kept walking."
Minor sentences do not follow the usual complete main-clause pattern: “Silence.” is one example. Some fragments contain verb forms, so “no verb” is not a universal definition.
Sentence functions: statements, questions, commands (imperatives) and exclamations.
Structure in contrasting sentences
Sentence length and rhythm
Short sentences may emphasise a moment, pause a flow or accelerate a sequence. Longer sentences may create momentum or detailed deliberation. Link the effect to the actual passage rather than a fixed length rule.
A list or triplet (rule of three) gives rhythm and emphasis. Repetition can show obsession or persuade.
A pause and a changed rhythm
Rhetorical devices
Direct address ("you") speaks to the reader. Rhetorical questions need no answer. Emotive language stirs feeling. Imperatives command ("Act now").
An anecdote is a brief account of an incident, often personal. Credible evidence and accurately presented statistics can support persuasion; repetition, contrast and hyperbole may shape the argument’s effect.
Tone is an attitude or feeling conveyed, such as concern, irony or urgency. Register concerns language choices suited to context, including degrees of formality; the concepts can interact.
Rhetoric for an audience
Analysing effect
Link the form to the effect: "The short sentence 'Nothing.' creates a sudden silence that makes the reader feel the narrator's emptiness."
