Combining Sentences

You can combine two or more short sentences into one long sentence. Here’s an example:

Three Short Sentences:

I like slithery snakes.
I like gorgeous geckos.
I like friendly frogs.

One Long Sentence:

I like slithery snakes,
gorgeous geckos,
and friendly frogs.

Why Combine?

The three short sentences sound choppy. The long sentence has more style and is fun to read. You can learn how to combine sentences on the next page.
