Adjective Clause
An adjective clause is a dependent clause that
contains a subject and a verb. It describes, identifies, or gives further
information about a noun.
An adjective clause—also called an adjectival
or relative clause—will meet three requirements:
Next, it will begin with a relative pronoun or
a relative adverb
Finally, it will function as an adjective,
answering the questions What kind? How many? or Which one?
The adjective clause will follow one of these two
patterns:
-
relative pronoun or adverb + subject + verb
-
relative pronoun as subject + verb
Adjective Clauses are introduced by the following words:
who, whom, whose, which, that, where.
