A step back... What is a compound sentence? A compound sentence has two independent clauses joined by a conjunction. What is an independent clause? An independent clause can stand alone as a sentence because it has a subject + predicate and expresses one complete thought. Conjugations of conjunctions in MSA (classical Arabic) Conjunctions are indeclinable. What does this mean? In MSA/Classical conjunctions do not carry a short vowel on the last letter of the word to reflect the grammatical relevance of the word. However, the dual forms are declinable.
