What makes a sentence?

Clearly written, complete sentences require key information: a subject, a verb and a complete idea. A sentence needs to make sense on its own. A clause is a group of words that may make up a sentence. An independent clause is a group of words that may stand alone as a complete, grammatically correct thought.

a(n) clause should always be separated from the rest of the sentence by commas.

a(n) independent clause should always be separated from the rest of the sentence by commas.

an independent clause is a clause that can stand alone as a sentence (i.e., it expresses a complete thought). an independent clause, like all clauses, has a subject and verb. when there are no dependent clauses in the same sentence as an independent clause, the independent clause is a simple sentence.
