Types of Subordinate Clauses Conclusion Bibliography Introduction The theme of my course paper sounds as following: «Types of Sentences». Before beginning of investigation in our theme, I would like to say some words dealt with the theme of my course paper. Sentences with only one predication are called simple sentences. Those with more than one predication have usually no general name. We shall call them composite sentences. In a composite sentence each predication together with the words attached is called a clause. Composite sentences with coordinated clauses are compound sentences. She's a very faithful creature and I trust her.

(Cronin). Composite sentences containing subordinated clauses are complex sentences. If I let this chance slip, I'm a fool. (Cronin). In a complex sentence we distinguish the principal clause (I'm a fool) and the subordinate clause (If I let this chance slip) or clauses. Standing on such ground, I would like to point out tasks and aims of my work 1. The first task of my work is to give definition to term «sentence». 2. The second task is to give the classification of sentences in English. 3. The last task of my work is to characterize types of composite sentences. In our opinion the practical significance of our work is hard to be overvalued. This work reflects modern trends in linguistics and we hope it would serve as a good manual for those who wants to master modern English

language. Also this work can be used by teachers of English language for teaching English grammar. The present work might find a good way of implying in the following spheres: 1. In High Schools and scientific circles of linguistic kind it can be successfully used by teachers and philologists as modern material for writing research works dealing with English verbs. 2. It can be used by teachers of schools, lyceums and colleges by teachers of English as a practical manual for teaching English grammar. 3. It can be useful for everyone who wants to enlarge his/her knowledge in English. After having proved the actuality of our work, I would like to describe the composition of it: My work consists of four parts: introduction, the main part, conclusion and bibliography. Within the

introduction part we gave the brief description of our course paper. The main part of the work includes several items. There we discussed such problems as the types of sentences in English, their classification, the problem of composite sentences and etc. In the conclusion to our work we tried to draw some results from the scientific investigations made within the present course paper. In bibliography part we mentioned some sources which were used while compiling the present work. It includes linguistic books and articles dealing with the theme, a number of used dictionaries and encyclopedias and also some internet sources. 1. The Sentence The notion of sentence has not so far received a satisfactory definition, which would enable us by applying it in every particular case to

find out whether a certain linguistic unit was a sentence or not. Thus, for example, the question remains undecided whether such shop notices as Book Shop and such book titles as English are sentences or not. In favour of the view that they are sentences the following consideration can be brought forward. The notice Book Shop and the title English Grammar mean 'This is a book shop', 'This is an English Grammar'; the phrase is interpreted as the predicative of a sentence whose subject and link verb have been omitted, that is, it is apprehended as a unit of communication. According to the other possible view, such notices as Book Shop and such titles as English Grammar are not units of communication at all, but units of nomination, merely appended to the object they denote.
