1. Complex sentence.

Complex is a sentence that has two or more independent grammatical stems connected by coordinating conjunctions.

Punctuation marks in a complex sentence.

1. A comma is placed between parts of a complex sentence connected by conjunctions:
   1. connecting ( and, yes in meaning and, neither... nor);
   2. adversative ( ah, but, yes in meaning but, however, on the other hand, otherwise, not);
   3. dividing ( or, either, whether... whether, then... that, not those... not that);
   4. connecting ( yes, yes and, too, also);
   5. explanatory ( that is, namely).
2. If parts of a complex sentence are significantly common or have commas inside them, then between them a semicolon is added(before unions But And Yes meaning "and" only when they connect parts that would otherwise be separated by a point): Almost every evening later they went somewhere out of town to Oreanda or to a waterfall; And the walk was a success, the impressions were invariably beautiful and majestic each time (H), I only had blue paint, But, despite this, I decided to draw a hunt (L. T), I thought he started crying, A I must tell you that Azamat was a stubborn boy, and nothing could make him cry, even when he was younger (L.)
3. If in second part compound sentence contains an unexpected addition or sharp contrast to the first part, then between them a dash is placed instead of a comma: Deft and strong blows with sledgehammers on the barrels of machine guns - and the Nazis can no longer shoot (V. Stavsky). I rush there - and the whole city is already there (P.)

1. Comma before unions oh yeah(meaning "and"), or, or in a compound sentence not placed:
   1. common minor member (In such a storm the wolf does not prowl and the bear does not crawl out of the den);
   2. if parts of a complex sentence have (When the thunderstorm started, the game stopped and the children rushed to run home);
   3. between two nominal proposals (Walk in the forest and boating);
   4. between two interrogative proposals (What time is it now and how much time is left before the train leaves?).
2. There is no comma between two impersonal sentences that have synonymous words as part of the predicates (You need to rewrite the work and explain the mistakes made in it).
3. A comma is placed between parts of a complex sentence that have common minor member or general subordinate clause, if these parts are connected repeating conjunction (Heavy trucks were moving along the streets, cars were rushing, and pedestrians were hurrying along).

   If the parts of the sentence are not connected by a repeating conjunction, but have a common member, then a comma between them not placed: The eyes sparkled on the pale face and the nose stretched out.

2. Complex sentence.

Difficult to subordinate a sentence is a complex sentence that contains main part And dependent(subordinate clause). The parts of such a sentence are interconnected subordinating conjunctions or allied words.

Punctuation marks in complex sentences.

1. Subordinate clause separated from the main one comma or separated by commas on both sides, if located inside the main.
2. Sometimes, with intonational emphasis, explanatory clauses (as well as conditional ones with the conjunction whether), standing before the main clause, are separated from it not by a comma, but dash: He who is cheerful laughs (L.-K.); As the teacher said, I listened for a long time at the window (Plsch.); Of course, it’s good that he’s getting married to her, but who knows how they’ll live (M. G.); Whether a plowman sings a song in the distance, the long song touches the heart; Will the forest begin - pine and aspen (N.)(in the last example in the second part there is an incomplete sentence).
3. In rare cases, a subordinating conjunction is preceded by colon: this occurs when in the previous part of a complex sentence contains a special warning about further clarification(you can insert the words here "namely"): Hadji Murat sat next to him in the room and, although he did not understand what they were saying, he understood, however, what he needed to understand: that they were arguing about him and that his departure from Shamil was a matter of great importance for the Russians.. (L T .)
4. When a subordinate clause is connected to the main clause using complex subordinating conjunction (because, in view of the fact that, due to the fact that, due to the fact that, due to the fact that, because, so that, instead of, in order to, so that, after, while, since like, etc.), That the comma is placed once:
   1. before the union, if the subordinate clause follows the main clause: We sat on the corner of the bastion, so we could see everything in both directions (L.);
   2. after the entire subordinate clause, if it precedes the main thing: As I spoke, he came to his senses (M. G.)
   Note. Depending on the meaning, a complex conjunction can break up into two parts: the first part will be part of the main sentence as a relative word, and the second will serve as a conjunction; in such cases a comma is placed only before the second part of a complex conjunction: He lost weight overnight so that only skin and bones remained (L. T.); Grandfather ordered not to wake up Tanyusha until she wakes up (Ax.). Complex unions then, as if, even if, only when don't break.
5. If a subordinating conjunction or relative word is preceded by negation "Not" or repeating coordinating conjunction oh, or, or and so on., then the subordinate clause not separated from main comma: What matters is not what he said, but how he said it; It was noisy both when the children played in the yard and when they gathered in the dining room(a comma is placed between subordinate clauses in such cases).
6. They are not subordinate clauses and do not separate That's why comma irreducible expressions at any cost, as if nothing had happened, whatever it takes, whatever it takes and so on.
7. Subordinate clause, consisting of only one relative word, no comma separated: He was offended, but he said why.

3. Complex non-union sentence.

A non-union complex sentence is a sentence in which its constituent parts ( simple sentences) are interconnected in meaning, intonation, and the order of the parts. Between the parts of such a sentence no unions.

Punctuation marks in the non-union complex sentence.

Comma and semicolon in a non-union complex sentence
1. Between independent sentences combined into one complex non-union sentence, a comma is added, if such proposals are closely related in meaning: The deep darkness in the sky was thinning, day fell on the dark valley, dawn rose (P.).
2. If parts of a non-union complex sentence distant from each other by meaning or are very common and have commas inside them, then between them a semicolon is added: At the gate I saw an old cast-iron cannon; the streets were cramped and crooked, the huts were low and mostly covered with thatch (P.); It was already evening; the sun disappeared behind a small aspen grove that lay half a mile from the garden; its shadow stretched endlessly across the motionless fields (T.).
3. If a non-union complex sentence falls apart(groups of sentences), meaningfully distant from each other, then between them a semicolon is added, and within these parts simple sentences are separated by a comma: The forest smell intensifies, there is a slight whiff of warm dampness; the wind that has taken off near you freezes (T.); The pale gray sky became lighter, colder, and bluer; the stars blinked with faint light and then disappeared; the ground became damp, the leaves began to sweat, in some places living sounds and voices began to be heard (T.).

A colon in a non-union complex sentence is placed:
1. If the second part (one or more sentences) explains, reveals the content of what is said in the first part (you can insert words between both parts "namely"): I was not mistaken: the old man did not refuse the offered glass. (P.) Here a rather interesting picture opened up: a wide hut, the roof of which rested on two sooty pillars, was full of people (L.);
2. If in the first sentence using verbs see, look, hear, know, feel etc. a warning is given that what will follow is a statement of some fact or some description: I know: in your heart there is both pride and direct honor (P.); Pavel feels: someone’s fingers are touching his arm above the elbow (N.O.).
   Notes
   1. Sometimes these verbs are omitted: He thought, sniffed: it smells like honey (Ch.)(missing: and felt that).
   2. If the first sentence is pronounced without a hint of warning, then a comma is placed instead of a colon: I hear the earth tremble (N.).
3. If the second part indicates the basis, the reason for what is said in the first part (you can insert a conjunction between both parts because): They were silent the whole way to the farm: the bumpy ride made it difficult to talk (Ch.).

In these cases, most often the main part of the statement (corresponding to the main clause in complex sentences) is contained in the first part of the non-union complex sentence, and in the second part (corresponding to subordinate clause in complex sentences) an explanation and disclosure of the content of the first part is provided.

A dash in a non-union complex sentence is placed:
1. If the second part contains an unexpected addition, an indication of a rapid change of events: Suddenly men with axes appeared - the forest rang, groaned, crackled (N.); Ignat pulled the trigger - the gun misfired (Ch.);
2. If the second part contains sharp contrast in relation to the first part: The oak is holding on - the reed has fallen to the ground (Kr.); They mowed a mile - they mowed a penny (M. G.);
3. If the second part contains consequence, conclusion from what is said in the first part: Praise is tempting - how can you not want it? (Kr.);
4. If in the first part the time of the action is indicated, which is discussed in the second part (you can add the union When): They plow the arable land - they don’t wave their hands (ate); The forest is being cut down - the chips are flying (ate);
5. If the first part means condition for performing an action, which is discussed in the second part (you can add the union If): If you like to ride, you also like to carry sleds(last); Lying on the stove - no workdays to be seen(last);
6. If one part contains comparison with what is said in another: Says a word - the nightingale sings (L.).

A dash is placed also in cases where The second part a non-conjunctive complex sentence is incomplete sentence: (I thought it was a wolf).

1. The subordinate part of a complex sentence is separated by commas: While his wife was preparing breakfast, Danilov went out into the garden(Pan.); How long he sat by the fallen spruce tree, Andrei did not remember(Bub.); Her piercing, sharp voice, which can only be found in the south, cut through the distance, almost without weakening(Paul.); Kapustin promised to reach an agreement with the head of the school,so that he increases Meresyev’s number of sorties,and suggested Alexey create a training program for himself(Floor.); The old man ordered the meat to be cooked for real,so that it looks good(Sem.); Injecting water can provide direct evidencethat painful influences by themselves are not able to reduce secretion(I.P.).

2. A complex sentence may contain incomplete sentences:

1) incomplete sentence as the main part: It's been two years now how we are married (cf.: We married for two years now- simple sentence); It's been a month now how he returned from the south(cf.: He's been back from the south for a month now- a comma before the conjunction would “tear off” the predicate from the subject); It's been three weeks since we've been here (cf.: We I've been here for three weeks already- the circumstance of place is expressed by the combination as here).

But: This is the third day he's been here- a simple sentence, whereas in the above examples the words were implied in the main part of the sentence has passed since then or has passed since then;

2) incomplete (or close to incomplete) sentence as a subordinate part: It was hard to understand what's the matter; Ready to help in any way I can; Gradually we learned to understand what's what (cf.: You'll understand what's what); People know what they are doing; Come on in, who already has tickets; Sit down wherever you can; Do whatever it takes; Place it as you wish; Tell who you should; Absolutely everyone scolded who cares - with a touch of clarification (cf.: The leaflets are piled up and everyone is taking them.- a phraseological phrase meaning ‘anyone who wants, whoever wants’); Send where necessary.

But: Do what you want etc. [See § 41, paragraph 2. ]

3. If the main part of a complex sentence is inside a subordinate clause (in colloquial style of speech), then a comma is usually placed only after the main part (and not before it); cf.: It is impossible to say by economy, for him to do...(G.) - It cannot be said that he was engaged in housekeeping; But these words I feel uncomfortable, for you to say...(Hertz.) — But I don't feel comfortable for you to say these words.

The words you see, you know, etc. are not separated by commas in interrogative and exclamatory sentences like: And he knows what good!; And he see what it does? See § 25, paragraph 8. ]

4. There is no comma between the main clause and the subordinate clause that follows it:

1) if there is a negative particle not before a subordinating conjunction or allied word: At sea, rocking, sleepingnot when you want, but when you can(Gonch.); Try to find outnot what they have already done, but what they are going to do next; I came not to interfere with your work, but, on the contrary, to help;Roman generals considered it important to establishnot how many enemy troops are in front of them, but where they are; He knows not only where the game is found, but also what varieties live there;

2) if before the subordinating conjunction or allied word there is coordinating conjunctionand, neither... nor, or, either etc. (usually repeated): Please note and what he said, and how he said it; He didn't hear neither how the sister entered the room, nor how she then silently left;I will answer your requestor when the next issue of the newsletter arrives, or when I myself make the necessary inquiries; Not imaginedand how to get out of this situation; I know and how it is done;The boy was forgivenand when he didn't listen to anyone.

But with a different order of the main and subordinate parts: What was this boy's name? and I don’t remember;

3) if the subordinate clause consists of one allied word (relative pronoun or adverb): I would also like to know why (L. T.); I do not know why, but I didn't understand him(Trif.); It's hard to say why; He left and didn't say Where; He promised to return soon, but did not specify When; The mother determined the child’s temperature with her lips: she would put them to the forehead and immediately determine How many; Someone handed the sick man a cup of water, he didn't even look Who; I won't say which one I say - a great misfortune.

A comma is not placed before the subordinate clause even if there are several relative words acting as homogeneous members of the sentence: I don’t know why and how, but the letter suddenly disappeared; They will call and ask who and why.

In context, it is possible to place a comma or a dash before a single conjunctive word: What should be done? Teach what - enhanced logical emphasis of the pronoun; At one time he whispered something, they couldn’t understand- What? (A.T.) - the placement of a dash emphasizes the meaning of the pronoun and is justified by interrogative intonation.

If the conjunctive word that forms the subordinate clause has a particle, then placing a comma in front of it is optional: I don’t remember what exactly; He finds it difficult to say what else; This quote can be found, I even remember approximately where.

5. If the subordinating conjunction is preceded by the words especially, in particular, that is, namely, for example, and also, but simply etc. with a connecting meaning, then a comma is not placed after these words: Not I want schoolchildren to study in the spring, especially when the sun is warm and shining brightly; It was necessary to carry out additional research work, in particular when an experimental test of the machine's operation began; The author has the right to receive a portion of the royalties in accordance with the terms of the contract, that is, when the manuscript has been approved by the publisher; The expedition will have to end early under unfavorable conditions, namely when the rainy season will begin; On always have your ID with you, for example when you will receive money by postal order; The graduate student came to Moscow to meet with his supervisor, and also to work in the archives.[Wed. § 24, paragraph 4. ]

6. If the subordinating conjunction is preceded by intensifying particles just, only, only, exclusively etc., then a comma is placed in front of them (contrary to intonation, since when reading there is no pause before them):Katya left the dining room, just when we stepped towards each other through some suitcases(Kav.); I will do this job only if I am free (cf.: ...if only I'm free); He came solely to help me (cf.: He came not only to see me, but also to help me- the influence of a negative particle is not).

After emphatic particles, after all, standing before a subordinating conjunction in the subordinate clause preceding the main one, a comma is not placed: There’s nothing much to brag about yet, that's how We'll get the job done, then come.

7. If there is an introductory word between the main and subordinate parts of a complex sentence, then it is separated by commas on a general basis: He thought, perhaps that I don't want to meet him; If there is a demand for anything, Means, there will be a proposal.

The assignment of an introductory word in meaning to the main or subordinate part is determined by the conditions of the context. Wed: He was angry, apparently because his face was excited- the introductory word refers to the main part (an excited person may be a consequence, not a cause, of the subject’s state); He was in a hurry because, apparently, he was afraid of being late for the meeting- the introductory word refers to the subordinate clause, as evidenced by the dismemberment of the complex subordinating conjunction.
