1. Identifying and Analyzing Complex Sentences
Please take notes on the following slides.
Yes, you will be assessed on future assessments and your final exam, so be sure to take good notes and ask clarifying questions if needed. 

2. Elements of a Complex Sentence with an Adjective Clause
First, it will contain a subject and verb and can have phrases
Next, it will begin with a relative pronoun [who, whom, whose, that, or which]
Finally, it will function as an adjective, answering the questions: What kind? How many? or Which one?
You can always take the clause out of the sentence and still have a perfectly-written sentence left.
(Note: when using an adjective clause, only place commas around the clause if it is NOT essential to the meaning of the sentence)
Example: Diane felt manipulated by her beagle Santana, whose big, brown eyes pleaded for another cookie.
Example: Growling ferociously, the two dogs competed for the hardboiled egg that bounced across the kitchen floor.

3. Elements of a Complex Sentence with an Adverb Clause
An adverb clause will meet three requirements:
1. It will contain both a subject and verb and may contain phrases
2. You will also find a subordinate conjunction that keeps the clause from expressing a complete thought.
Most popular ones: Since When If Although Because Even though
(Note: when a sentence begins with an adverb clause, you MUST put a comma after the clause and before the main sentence. However, when a sentence contains an adverb clause later in the sentence, you do not use a comma after the main sentence and before the clause begins)
3. The clause answers one of these four questions: How? When? Where? or Why?
Example: Tommy scrubbed the bathroom tile until his arms ached.
How did Tommy scrub? Until his arms ached, an adverb clause.
Example: After her appointment at the orthodontist, Danielle cooked eggs for dinner because she could easily chew an omelet.
