A compound sentence is a sentence that is composed of two independent sentences joined by a coordinating conjuction. Our sentence is a compound sentence (sorry, It's a...)


the two sentences are:
1.We fixed the broken toy with glue
2.it broke again after a few minutes.

and the conjunction is "but"
