Question

how would you classify the following sentence from malala yousafzais speech to the united nations?
we will speak for our rights and we will bring change through our voice.
○ simple
○ compound - complex
○ compound
○ complex

Explanation:

A compound sentence has two or more independent clauses joined by a conjunction (like "and" here). The sentence "We will speak for our rights and we will bring change through our voice" has two independent clauses ("We will speak for our rights" and "we will bring change through our voice") connected by "and", so it's a compound sentence. A simple sentence has one independent clause, a complex has one independent and at least one dependent, and compound - complex has multiple independent and dependent clauses.

Answer:

compound
