Mar 21	comment	Are complex sentences uncommon or unwanted in English? The sentences don't tend to indulge in bad habits, but the use of very log sentences may give the writer opportunities to indulge in bad habits. That being said, sometimes the only difference between a long sentence and a collection of shorter ones is that the pauses -- as indicated by punctuation -- are more pronounced in the stops between the smaller sentences.
Mar 21	comment	Are complex sentences uncommon or unwanted in English? @Dafr I don't think this is true at all. A well-formulated complex sentence is a wonderful thing. But if you are depending on a teacher for a grade, go with what he or she wants on their assignments (at least if you want the best possible scores/grades).
