Keywords:
Grammar problemsAbstract
This article explores the theory of composite sentences, which integrate features of compound and complex sentences, creating nuanced and layered syntactic structures. It delves into the distinction between syndetic constructions (linked by explicit conjunctions) and asyndetic constructions (connected implicitly or via punctuation), highlighting their respective roles in clarity, style, and interpretation. Through examples from storytelling, academic writing, journalism, and everyday communication, the article demonstrates the practical applications of composite sentences. Key challenges, such as ambiguity in asyndesis and the balance between elegance and clarity, are addressed, alongside linguistic and cultural differences in usage. The piece concludes by emphasizing the importance of composite sentence theory in linguistic studies, writing, and AI applications, asserting its relevance in understanding the complexities of human communication.
