Relative clause of time is used when we need to add information about


something in the previous sentence or main clause. It can be called by
temporal clauses. The time clause can be signaled by the use of ‘when’.
We use adverb clauses to form compound sentences and provide
descriptions of specific information about the timing of an event. Adverb
clauses can be formed using the following conjunctions:
Before (before the incident);
After (after the incident);
When (in a specific time);
While (at the same time as other events).
is used to form compound sentences and provide descriptions of specific
information about the timing of an event. This compound sentence
consists of two parts: the main sentence and the sub-sentence which is
connected by a liaison.
The conjunctions [connectors] that are used are: before, after, when and
while.
The structure is:
Connector + clause +, + clause
Clause + connector + clause
