A really useful set of words no one ever uses is "paratactic" and "hypotactic" -- "paratactic" sentences are sentences with no subordinate clauses, characteristic of John Bunyan and teenagers -- "and then I did this and then I did that and then this happened and then this happened". "Hypotactic" clauses refer to sentences that have subordinate clauses, which are often derived from Latin constructions that signal an educated elite whose background often involved the study of classical languages. Like the last sentence.
