Nominal clauses
Nominal clauses: If the clause answers the question, “who?” or “what?”, then it is a noun
clause.
Nominal clauses function like nouns. They can be used as the subject or object of a sentence,
after a preposition, an adjective or the verb to be.
Nominal -ing clause (also known as a participle clause):
 Wearing a uniform can help people feel part of the team. (as subject)
