Read Explanation:

  • In a compound sentence, there are two or more independent clauses connected by coordinating conjunctions (such as "and," "but," or "therefore").
  • മൂന്നാമത്തേത് ഒരു simple sentence ആണ്. All other are compound sentences. 
  • "He is not only handsome but also intelligent." - This is a compound sentence with two independent clauses joined by the coordinating conjunction "but."
  • "The sun was setting, and the moon was rising." - In this sentence, there are two independent clauses: "The sun was setting" and "the moon was rising." They are joined by the coordinating conjunction "and," making it a compound sentence.
  • "Nadal plays tennis in the morning." - This is a simple sentence with only one independent clause.
  • "Lakshmi likes to read and write." - The predicate "likes to read and write" contains two actions ("read" and "write") joined by the coordinating conjunction "and."
  • All these sentences follow a similar structure of having two separate ideas or actions joined by coordinating conjunctions.
