![Page 2: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Clauses are EASY!
• The word CLAUSE comes from the same root as the words claustrophobia, enclosure, and close. The idea is that a clause is a CLOSING.– The SUBJECT opens the idea, and the PREDICATE
closes it;– The SUBJECT asks, and the PREDICATE answers
![Page 3: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
A CLAUSE is simply a group of words
• That contains a SUBJECT and its PREDICATE, and this one-two structure OPENS and CLOSES an idea.
• Every clause has this PRIMARY set at its center
• EXAMPLE: HE LOVES TAKING NOTES• Subject: HE• Predicate: LOVES

Subject / PredicateOpen, Close
• The COMPLETE CLAUSE includes not only the subject and the verb, but all of the MODIFIERS and PHRASES that go with them. A sentence may consist of ONE clause, or it might can SEVERAL clauses, each with its own subject and predicate.

I and D – Two Kinds of Clauses
• Independent Clause (I): An independent clause is a clause that makes sense INDEPENDENTLY.
• It can stand alone.
![Page 12: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Dependent Clause (D):
• A dependent of SUBORDINATE clause is usually a clause that does not make sense unless it can “HANG ON” to an INDEPENDENT clause.
• Dependent clauses are sometimes called SUBORDINATE clauses, and often begin SUBORDINATING conjunctions.
![Page 13: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Stop! Practice Time!
• Here are a few examples of independent and dependent clauses. Identify the subject (opening) and verb (closing) in each. Then label and decide if the clause is mature or immature. Write I for independent and D for dependent.

Clause vs. Sentence
• A clause has both a SUBJECT and a VERB like a sentence, but a sentence always has a COMPLETE thought, whereas a clause might be INCOMPLETE.
• A sentence can consist of several CLAUSES• Every sentence has at least ONE
INDEPENDENT clause in it, but a DEPENDENT clause does not make a complete thought.
![Page 20: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Four Sentence Structures
I• Simple Sentence: A simple sentence is a
sentence consisting of one INDEPENDENT clause.
• Example: Murgatroyd slowly ate the beef and yam stew.
![Page 21: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
II – Compound Sentence
• A compound sentence is a sentence made up of two or more INDEPENDENT clauses. You can use a compound sentence to connect two or more ideas of EQUAL importance. Use COORDINATING conjunctions to create compound sentences
• Punctuate: I, cc I or I;I• EX: Murgatroyd slowly ate the beef and yam
stew, and he lovingly drank a tall glass of skim milk.
![Page 22: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
ID or D,I: Complex Sentence
• A complex sentence is a sentence that is complex because it consists of an independent clause joined to a DEPENDENT clause. You can use a complex sentence to show a PRIMARY idea that has a LESSER idea attached to it. The INDEPENDENT clause will contain the LESSER idea. Use SUBORDINATING conjunctions to create complex sentences.
![Page 23: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Complex Sentences
• Punctuate them:
• ID• D,I
• Murgatroyd slowly ate the beef and yam stew because it was his favorite.
![Page 24: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
IID DII Compound-Complex Sentence
• A compound-complex is a sentence is a sentence that contains both a COMPOUND clause and a COMPLEX clause.
• EX: Murgatroyd slowly ate the beef and yam stew, but his sister, who is a vegetarian, refused to eat for dinner.
![Page 25: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Conjunctions
• A conjunction CONNECTS words or groups of words. There are THREE kinds of conjunctions: coordinating, subordinating, and correlative.
![Page 26: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Coordinating Conjunctions
• FANBOYS—connects words or groups of words that are of equal importance.
• FOR• AND• NOR• BUT• OR • YET• SO
![Page 27: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Subordinating Conjunctions
• WASBIT—Introduce DEPENDENT CLAUSES and join them to INDEPENDENT CLAUSE
• (You have the whole list on your notes!)• While / When• As / Although• Since / So that• Because / Before• If / In order that• Though / That
![Page 28: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Correlative Conjunctions
• Correlative Conjunctions—are word pairs that serve to join words or groups of words.
• Both…and• Either…or• Neither…nor• Not only…but also• Whether…or
![Page 29: The Clause Michael Clay Thompson Level 4 Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf811a28abf838c8583d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Conjunctive Adverbs
• Conjunctive Adverbs–are used to express relationships between INDEPENDENT clauses.
• Accordingly also besides consequently finally• Furthermore hence however instead • Nevertheless otherwise similarly still
therefore • thus
