Traditionally, it is considered that there are simple and compound sentences.
1. Simple sentences. They have only one predicate and are unrelated. They are defined by punctuation. They are basic in the so-called "cut style", with a modern taste.
Example:
Clarify. The day breaks the shadows. It undoes them.
Due to the role that the subject plays in relation to verbal action, simple sentences can be:
a) Active. The subject executes the action indicated by the verb:
The newspaper spread the news
subject verb compl.
direct active agent
b) Passive. The subject receives the action indicated by the verb, executed by the agent complement (the latter is generally understood):
The news was spread by the newspaper
subject verb complement
passive patient agent

The same can also be expressed by the passive call with "se" (or impersonal passive):
The news was spread by the newspaper
sign of verb subject complement
passive active patient agent
2. Compound sentences. The sentences are linked, in the form of periods. They are the most common in speech. Joining can be done in two ways:

a) By coordination. The sentences maintain their independence, although they are linked. The union can be in two ways:
a) With connection: Juan studies and the teacher guides him.
b) Without nexus (juxtaposed): Juan studies, the teacher guides him.
b) By subordination. Sentences are not independent, since one or more subordinates depend on a main one (lacking a complete meaning by themselves, they act in a complementary function). According to their function, the subordinates are classified as:
»Nouns

Subject: Whoever studies progresses.
Direct complement: Juan studies what he likes.
Indirect complement: Juan studies for who helps him.

Conditionals:
The young man who is there studies.
The young man who is progressive studies.
The young man, who is my friend, studies.
Juan studies as directed. Juan studies where he is. Juan studies when they leave him. Juan studies because he wants to. Juan studies, that's why he will know. Juan studies if he can.
As we can see, the sentence elements that we saw earlier are here represented not by simple words or phrases, but by sentences (which, as such, have their own verb). In compound sentences there must be at least two verbs in the personal, express or intentional way.
Coordinate sentences can be broken down into simple sentences, separated by periods, since each one has its own independent meaning. Subordinates, on the other hand, have no meaning except in terms of their principal: only the latter could act independently.
