Simple Sentences A simple sentence, also called an independent clause, contains a subject and a verb, and it expresses a complete thought.

Independent clause and dependent clause. A group of words made up of a subject and a predicate. An independent clause (unlike a dependent clause) can stand alone as a sentence. Independent clause, atau bisa juga disebut main clause, adalah kalimat yang mempunyai gagasan atau pokok pikiran yang lengkap (complete thought).
