Review: What is an adjective?

Review: What is a clause?

What is an independent clause ? -A group of words with its own subject and verb -An independent clause can stand by itself as a complete sentence. Example: He is afraid of cats

What is a subordinate clause ? -It cannot stand alone by itself as a sentence. Example: afraid of pink cats

What is an adjective clause?

What is an adjective clause or relative clause? 1. It is a subordinate clause (cannot stand by itself) 2. It modifies a noun or pronoun 3. It comes after the words they modify

Relative Pronouns Relative PronounExample We can use who or that when we talk about people Who is more formal than that This is the man who helped us. (more formal) This is the man that helped us. (less formal) We don’t use what: This is the man what helped us. We use which or that when we talk about things (but not people). Which is more formal that that. It’s the watch which my husband bought me for my birthday. (more formal). It’s the watch that my husband bought me for my birthday. (less formal) In informal speech, we can omit which and that when the pronoun refers to the object of the sentence. It’s the watch my husband bought me for my birthday. In this sentence, ‘the watch’ is the object of the verb bought se we don’t need to use that or which. We cannot omit which and that when the pronoun refers to the subject of the sentence. It was the man that sold me the car. In this sentence, ‘the man’ is the subject of the verb sold so we need to use that or who. It was the man sold me the car. We use whose to show possession.John, whose brother was also a musician, plays over 100 converts every year.
