So far we have described the phrase types which occur as the part of clauses and sentences, now we shall describe the clauses which form the various types of sentences such as-Simple and Complex. All the indecent clauses can occur as the sentences with the sentence intonation. Following are the independents clause types which form the simple sentence types.
 

1. N Comp V cop
 

This type of clause consists of a nominal or nominal phrase as a subject, a complement and the copula verb. The copula verb is a linking verb between the noun subject and the complement and the complement can be either of the nominal or nominal phrase, adjective or adverb phrase. Thus on the basis of the complements there can be the following types of clauses and there is a co-restriction between nominal phrase and complement which refers to the nominal occurring as subject. There is an agreement of gender and number between nominal subject and the complement adjective and the same way copula verb also agrees with the subject in gender-number or person-number whatever the case may be.
