🔘RuiEnglish Lec: GRAMMAR Adverbial clauses of time

Learning Objective: Use adverbial clauses of time

before
when
after

We use them as adverbs before a noun.

When women get married, they usually wear a brightly colored sari.


Before two people get married, they plan the wedding.

1. The first half of the sentence is an adverbial clause
(adverb + subject + verb).

2. An adverbial clause is subordinate. It cannot occur on its own and is always attached to a main clause.

Before two people get married, (= the subordinate clause) they plan the wedding. (= the main clause)

3. Adverbial clauses of time can appear either before or after the main clause. We use a comma if the adverbial clause comes first.

Before they marry, couples send invitations.

Couples send invitations before they marry.


Listen and practice

After the groom arrives,
Before the wedding,

they usually wear a brightly colored sari.
