Writing Complex Sentences

A complex is made up of  and independant clause and a dependant clause.

An independent clause is a group or words that could be a sentence : Ex : I am happy.

A Dependent clause is a group of words that cannot be sentence by itself : Ex : When I ski.

A dependent clause can help form a sentence when it works with an independent clause : Ex: I am happy when I ski.

Other joining words > that, who , which , but, after, for, since, while , though.

Not a complex sentence : I was hungry but than I ate dinner.
