What to Focus On

  • Synthesis of sentences means combining two or more sentences into a new sentence.
  • The result may be a simple sentence, a compound sentence, or a complex sentence.
  • The meaning should remain clear and grammatically correct.
  • A phrase has no finite verb and cannot stand on its own.
  • A sentence has at least one finite verb and can always stand on its own.
  • A clause has one finite verb and may or may not stand on its own.
  • A simple sentence has one finite verb.
  • While combining simple sentences into one simple sentence, only one finite verb should remain.
  • Several phrase-based methods are used for this purpose.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Any combined sentence is automatically a simple sentence.

A simple sentence can have more than one finite verb if it looks short.

Any clause can be used like a phrase.
