復合句
復合句分為并列復合句(也稱并列句)和主從或從屬復合句(也稱復雜句)。

特點:When two independent clauses, or complete sentences are joined together, they form one compound sentence.

復雜句
復雜句,某個句子成分直接由從屬分句表示,那么這種句子便不是簡單句而是復雜句。

特點:When an independent clause and a dependent clause are joined together; they form one complex sentence.
復合句是由一個獨立的句子加一個從句構成的。
