I’m not a teacher, and oh my goodness, now I know why English teachers are worth their salt. I just can’t explain this in a simple way! I thought this question would be easy to answer but it’s not easy at all. Just because a word is commonly used and short doesn’t guarantee that it’s easy to...

I wouldn't know how to give a detailed explanation or description of all three types of clause in one post, so let's go step by step. Let's start with adjectival (or relative) clauses, since these are the easiest to identify. They can function only as postmodifiers of a nominal head. This...
