2) He was originally from Spain but moved to London in the UK, since his move to the UK, he has established an export business selling fruit.

3) I will keep your savings in our trust fund, until that time, you shall have to wait.



I will keep your savings in our trust fund. Until that time, you shall have to wait.

He was originally from Spain but moved to London in the UK. Since his move to the UK, he has established an export business selling fruit.



What is the difference in the subordinate usage with since and until (or any prepositional phrase) and just beginning a new sentence with them following another one ? As in the last two examples ?


Because is subordinate because it requires the information that preceded it to make sense, but since and until can begin new independent sentences.
