Identifying Writing Combining Adjective Clauses Identifying Writing Combining

4c4 - Analyze sentences containing descriptive adjectives, adverbs, prepositional phrases (functioning as adjectives or adverbs), appositive phrases, adjective clauses, adverb clauses and noun clauses. LS 3 WS 2 Objectives

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

There are three types 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).

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

Rule 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.

Answers 1. that nobody likes modifies either music or kind (a prepositional phrase can separate the introductory word from the word it modifies) 2. whom you saw modifies man 3. when I took my first airplane ride modifies day 4. whose parents live in Australia modifies neighbor 5. that I learned about cleaning the walk modifies hint

Find the adjective clause in the following sentences and tell which word it modifies. 1. The singer that you see on stage is my sister. 2. The owner is a woman by whom many things have been accomplished. 3. The teacher who gives the girls piano lessons lives next door. 4. The man whose leg was broken was taken to the hospital. 5. This is the place where the Donner Party perished.

Answers 1. that you see on stage modifies singer 2. by whom many things have been accomplished modifies woman 3. who gives the girls piano lessons modifies teacher 4. whose leg was broken modifies man 5. where the Donner Party perished modifies place

Combining Sentences Using the various kinds of clauses can give variety to your sentences. Adjective clauses can be used for this purpose.

2. The mechanic repaired my sister's car. The car had a warped block. Use an adjective clause to combine the following sentences. Use the introductory words who, whose, whom, which, that, when, where, or since to begin the adjective clause. 1. The doctor examined the patient. The patient had fallen from a cliff. 2. The mechanic repaired my sister's car. The car had a warped block. 3. The restaurant has closed permanently. The customers loved to eat there. 4. The day was a wonderful day. Terri was married on that day. 5. The parents had great respect for the teacher. The teacher had taught their children.

The restaurant where the customers loved to eat has closed permanently. 4. The day when Terri was married was wonderful. 5. The parents had great respect for the teacher who had taught their children. 

2. The lot is covered with salt grass. We play baseball there. Use an adjective clause to combine the following sentences. Use the introductory words who, whose, whom, which, that, when, where, and since for the adjective clause. 1. They followed the strange man. He had just come from the dark alley. 2. The lot is covered with salt grass. We play baseball there. 3. A minute passed in complete silence. Terri announced her wedding plans then. 4. The newspaper had been delivered late. It is the one I receive. 5. I bought Jim a book. The book is about magic.

Answers 1. They followed the strange man who had just come from the dark alley. 2. The lot where we play baseball is covered with salt grass. 3. A minute when Terri announced her wedding plans passed in complete silence. 4. The newspaper that I receive had been delivered late. 5. I bought Jim a book which is about magic. 

Placement of Adjective Clauses In using an adjective clause, you should always place it as near to the word it modifies as possible. If you misplace the adjective clause, the result is a ridiculous sentence or one that is unclear.

Examples: (incorrect) = I waved to my dog from the car that had just licked my face. (The car did not lick my face; the dog did.) (correct) = From the car I waved to my dog that had just licked my face. (Now the clause is as close as it can be to the word it modifies. That is, next to dog.)

Rewrite the following sentences placing the adjective clause in the correct place. 1. They drove to the lake in their new car where they love to fish for bass. 2. The large limousine pulled up to the curb which was loaded with students for the prom. 3. The new tricycle was smashed on the driveway that had been delivered yesterday. 4. We showed the pictures to our friends that we had taken at the wedding. 5. We caught several fish with the new bait which we cooked for dinner.
