1. What kinds of adverbial clause do you find
in those sentences?
2. What conjunctions are used in those
adverbial clauses?
3. Can you find other conjunctions for each
adverbial clause?

14
An adverb clause usually modifies a verb, but it
may modify an adjective, an adverb, or even the
rest of the sentence in which it appears.
Example:
“Because the rain fell for three days, every street in
town was flooded.”
In our sample sentence, the “because” clause actually
modifies the rest of the sentence (the independent
clause).

introduced by the subordinating
conjunctions in the following cases:

1. Adverb Clause of Reason

because, since, as
EX: You shouldn’t go out because it is raining now.

2. Adverb Clause of Time
after, before, since, when, while,
whenever, as, as soon as, once, until, as/so
long as, by the time, etc

mother, Hamlet wanted to kill him.

EX: You can go wherever you like.
17
4. Adverb Clause of Condition

not, in the event (that), provided (that)
EX: If the British co-operate, the Europeans may
achieve monetary union.
