Adjective Clause
An adjective clause is also called a
relative clause or an adjectival clause. A clause is a group of
words that have a subject and predicate. There are two kinds of clauses:
independent and dependent. Independent clauses are sentences because they
express a complete thought. Examples are: "The dog ran away." and
"Get the door." In the second one, the subject is implied. To explain
the function of an adjective clause, we will look at dependent
clauses.
Dependent Clauses
Dependent clauses have the subject and predicate
but can not stand alone. They depend on another clause to have meaning.
Examples are: "When you finish your work" and "unless I get more
money." With each of these, you want to ask "What?" because the
thought was not finished. Dependent clauses are also called subordinate clauses
and they start with a subordinate conjunction. This is the word that links the
dependent clause to the rest of the sentence.
Examples of subordinate conjunctions are: how,
where, when, why, unless, although, after, as far as, as if, because, before,
once, whether, while, now that, until, since, and unless.
The three types of dependent clauses are:
·
Adverbial (or adverb) - Adverbial clauses function as an adverb
and answer the questions: when, where, why, how, and how much. Examples
include: "Now that it rained a lot, the grass turned green." and
"I am much olderthan my brother."
·
Nominal - Nominal clauses function as a noun and can be the
subject, an object, an appositive, or a complement. Sometimes nominal clauses
start with an interrogative like: who, what, when, where, how, who, which, or
why. Examples of nominal clauses are: "They always fought overwho should
pay the bill" and "Whoever did thisis in big trouble."
·
Adjectival (or adjective)
What Is an Adjective
Clause
Adjectives clauses have a subject and a verb
(or predicate). They will start with a relative pronoun, like: that, who, whom,
whose, or which, or a relative adverb, like why, where, or when. Adjective
clauses function as an adjective and modify nouns and pronouns. They are also
called relative clauses.
Just as the other dependent clauses, the
adjective clause does not express a complete thought. It does not need commas
separating it from the rest of the sentence if it has essential information in
it; that is if you need the information it provides. If it gives additional
information, then you use commas. A good way to test for this is to leave out
the clause, read the sentence, and see if the meaning of the two sentences is
different.
Here are some examples of adjective clauses.
The adjective clause is underlined.
·
Chocolate, which many of us adore, is fattening.
·
People who are smart follow the rules.
·
I can remember the time when there were no computers.
·
Charlie has a friend whose daughter lives in China.
·
Wine that is produced in Tuscany is not cheap.
Adjectives
Since adjective clauses act like adjectives,
you may want more information about adjectives. Some adjectives express the writer's opinion of a noun
or pronoun, like silly, lovely, awful, and outrageous. These are called opinion
adjectives.
Some adjectives are descriptive, telling about
the physical characteristics of size, shape, color, or age. Examples include:
huge, wee, rectangular, oval, bluish, purple, new, and ancient.
An origin adjective tells where an object
originated or where is came from. These are adjectives like: eastern, lunar,
Egyptian, or German.
The composition of a noun or pronoun will be
described by a material adjective. Examples are: woolen, plastic, metal, or
silk.
Some adjectives tell what purpose an object is
used for. These many times end with an "ing." Some examples include:
baking, fishing, testing, or hunting.
Lastly, some adjectives compare and have
levels of comparison. These are words like: "good, better, best",
"dry, drier, driest", and "beautiful, more beautiful, and most
beautiful." Other adjectives compare but only on one level, like: unique,
main, impossible, final, and inevitable.
