11.

14
 Do you have good ideas but could not express them
because you have difficulty translating them into cohesive
sentences? This lesson will help you solve your dilemma.
Being able to write meaningful sentences is one of the best
skills that you can have not just as a student; it can be useful
in real life situations and later in your professional years.

Independent clause (also called a main clause) – can stand alone as a

complete sentence; it has a subject and a verb.
My neighbor purchased a big house.
Examples:
1. He built high walls around its house.
2. I’ll tell her the assignment.
3. The battery is defective.
Independent clause in a sentence:
• My neighbor purchased a big house before they went abroad.
Independent Clause
• Since Cora is absent yesterday, I’ll tell her the assignment.
Independent Clause

• The battery is defective when we tried it last time.

Independent Clause
Dependent clause (also called a subordinate clause) – is a group of words
that has a subject and a verb but it does not express a complete thought. It
is not a complete sentence on its own. It starts with subordinator words
and does not express a complete thought and cannot stand alone
Examples:
• When the cake is brown
• That Dad cooked for us
• If you set realistic goal
• After school

15
 Your prior knowledge on these lessons will be useful in
understanding your new lesson.

• sentence – a group of words that has a subject and a

verb that expresses a complete thought or idea.
•
• conjunction – is a word that joins words, phrases,
clauses, or sentences.

Examples: and, so, yet, or, nor, although, because, if,

but for, while, since, though, neither, either

Here are the examples of subordinator words:

once while when whenever before after since
although because if so until which as that whom

Dependent clause in a sentence:

When the cake is brown, take it out in the oven.
dependent clause
We all enjoyed the dinner that Dad cooked for us.
Dependent Clause

4. After she had finished typing, we completed the module.
5. We actually got it finished before the deadline arrived.

5. Mabel didn’t found anything since she went late.

16
Activity 2: Below are sentences with clause underlined. In the blank after

• A clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb and is

used as a part of the sentence. It can be Independent or
Dependent.
• Independent clause – can stand alone as a complete sentence.
• Independent clause – a group of words that has a subject and
verb but it does not express a complete thought.

Activity 1: Underline the Independent Clause used in the excerpt of an

essay entitled “Adventure of Friendship”.

Human friendship is one of life’s great challenges. Often it

degenerates into pragmatism or selfishness, but it can also be one of
the most satisfying adventures in life. One says that friendship comes
when we live totally and when we love totally, when we don’t dominate
anyone. Real friends are God’s special gifts to all of us. They are the
reward of unselfish loving. But we have to work hard at friendship to
make it the great adventure of love that it can be.
-Fr. Joseph A. Galdon, S.J
