What is Clause


Clause is a group of words that combination subject and verb, also has to complete meaning by itself.


Example.
  1. He plays cricket

Dependent and main clause.

A clause is additionally a gaggle of words, but all clauses have a topic and verb.


dependent and independent clauses:

Strictly speaking, every sentence has just one main clause, Else, it is often short and tense or that one clause is often wordy and long.


There are two sorts of clauses:

Independent clauses can stand along as sentence.

- these have a topic and verb and structure an entire thought.

Example:

  1. The main explanation for suffering is traced to selfish craving.
  2. Jeff lag affects most long-distance travelers.


Dependent clause also Called Subordinate clause, start with a subordinating conjunction and may not stand alone as sentence.
they need to be attached to a main clause to possess any grammatical with:

Example:

  1. Although there is no sure thanks to prevent lag.
  2. While the explanation for surfing is traced to selfish craving.... may be a dependent clause.


We can see it's subject (THE CAUSE) and a verb (IS TRACED), but because the clause starts with the subordinating on the remainder of the sentence, which, by the way is: human can, through the practice of wisdom and compassion, transcend the treadmill of repeated existences.


Subordinating conjunctions include (among others not during this list): because, as, if, although, since, whereas, when, how, whenever, while even though and that...


Subordinating conjunctions also can be duplicates of words that produce other functions (like even, when, how), so we've to observe where the word is placed during a sentence to ascertain its function.
