Synonyms of "Window" and their differences
Q:
What is the difference between The window was broken, and the driver was knocked out. and The window was broken, and the driver knocked out. ?
A:
The first sentence has two conjugated verbs - "was" and "was". They each need to be in their own clause. You correctly used the comma with "and" to connect the two clauses. The second sentence only has one conjugated verb "was" works with the participle "broken" and "knocked out". This is perfectly ok in English, but the comma here separates "knocked out" from it's conjugated verb "was" - and that you cannot do in English: ",and the driver knocked out." Is a fragment and not a full clause as in the first sentence.
