An independent clause (or main clause, matrix clause) is a clause that can stand by itself, also known as a simple sentence. An independent clause contains a subject and a predicate; it makes sense by itself.
Multiple independent clauses can be joined by using a semicolon or a comma plus a coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so).
Examples
* I love penguins. (simple sentence)
* I drive a bus. (simple sentence)
* I am a doctor, and my wife is a lawyer. (compound sentence made up of two independent clauses: I am a doctor and my wife is a lawyer)
* I want to be a nurse, but I need to receive my science degree. (compound sentence made up of two independent clauses: I want to be a nurse and I need to receive my science degree)
* Go to the store, and get me a carton of milk. (compound sentence) (Though a subject is not visible, in English the subject of an imperative is considered to be the pronoun 'you')
Stuti nira tan tulus sinahuran paramata Siwa. Anaku huwus katon abimatanta temunta kabeh. Hana panganugrahang ku sadu sakti winimba sara. Pasupati sastra kastu pangrannia nihan wulati.
