The Sentence Diagram Generator allows you to diagram a compound-complex sentence by breaking it down into its independent and dependent clauses. To create a diagram for a compound-complex sentence, follow these steps:

1. Identify the independent clauses and dependent clauses in the sentence.
2. Start by diagramming the independent clauses, placing them on the main horizontal line.
3. Use diagonal lines to connect any dependent clauses to their respective independent clauses.
4. Ensure that conjunctions (coordinating and subordinating) are appropriately represented in the diagram.

For example, for the sentence "Although it was raining, I went for a walk, and my friend stayed home," the diagram would show "I went for a walk" and "my friend stayed home" as independent clauses, with "Although it was raining" as a dependent clause connected to the first independent clause.
