Now, we add object:

Mimi ate banana.              >   (That is a kind of sentence).

 

Mimi ate a banana’ is this a complete sentence?

Yes.

Two simple sentences make a big sentence by using conjunction – and, or, but, if, because etc.

For example:

Today is Rosa’s birthday. – simple sentence (1)

She arranges a big party. – simple  sentence (2)

Insert ‘and’ to join sentence 1 and 2 together.

Today is Rosa’s birthday and she arranges a big party.

               

                        Just we add and

Once you use conjunctions; remove the full stop in the first sentence, e.g.

I eat rice. You eat bread.

I eat rice. and you eat bread.

Delete this full stop; put and

After deleting full stop, the sentence looks like below:

I eat rice and you eat bread.

More examples:

They study hard and get a good result.

I will lend you 500 pounds if you return after 10 days.

The cat drinks milk but the dog eats meat.

I am worried about your result although you are studying hard.

1. I eat rice. You eat bread. They drink coffee.

I eat rice and you eat bread but they drink coffee.
