what is dependent clause examples
Here is an example of a dependent clause acting as a noun: When a dependent clause is used as an adjective or an adverb, it will usually be part of a complex sentence (i.e., a sentence with an independent clause and at least one dependent clause).The link between a dependent clause and an independent clause will often be a subordinating conjunction or a relative pronoun. dependent clause (or subordinate clause) is one that cannot stand alone as a complete sentence because it does not express a complete thought.
