Adjective, Adverb, and Noun Clauses  Identifying  Writing  Combining

A complex sentence is made up of an independent clause and a dependent clause.

There are three kinds of dependent clauses:  adjective clause  adverb clause  noun clause

Adjective Clause The adjective clause is used to modify a noun or a pronoun. It will begin with a relative pronoun (who, whose, whom, which, and that) or a subordinate conjunction (when, where, and since).

Those are the only words that can be used to introduce an adjective clause.

The introductory word will always rename the word that it follows and modifies except when used with a preposition which will come between the introductory word and the word it renames.

Examples: The student whose hand was up gave the wrong answer. Whose hand was up is the adjective clause with whose, the relative pronoun, renaming and modifying student.

Examples Jane is a person in whom I can place my confidence. In whom I can place my confidence is the adjective clause with whom, the relative pronoun, with the preposition in between it and person, the word that whom renames and modifies.

Find the adjective clause in the following sentences and tell which word it modifies. 1. I play a kind of music that nobody likes. 2. The man whom you saw was not the famous actor. 3. I remember the day when I took my first airplane ride. 4. I have a neighbor whose parents live in Australia. 5. The hint that I learned about cleaning the walk saved me much work.

1. I like a leader who listens to his men. 2. The dog which I loved dearly was hit by a truck last night. 3. Rulon is a person who takes responsibility well. 4. All individuals who purchased tickets will be admitted. 5. The shirt that you bought me doesn't fit well. 6. The woman who baked the winning pie is my wife. 7.
