The subordinate clause of the sentence is -- Although the ostrich is a bird
"It doesn't fly."
The first (subordinate) clause would be followed by a comma.
"You played tennis anyway" is the independent clause; "although it was raining" is the dependent clause. An independent clause can stand on its own as a sentence, but a dependent clause cannot be a sentence.
It is a complex sentence for it has a main clause and a subordinate clause. "I 'll go to work today is th main clause and " Although I am sick " is the subordinate clause. A compond sentence has two independent clauses and are joined by a conjunction. Dr. Y.P.Hathi
An independent clause is a simple sentence that is correct by itself. Examples: I ride the bus. He wrote a story. A dependent clause is not correct by itself and is usually attached to an independent clause. Example: Although I was sick, I went swimming. (The part before the comma is the dependent clause and the part after is the independent clause because it can be a sentence on it's own.)
It is a complex sentence if it have "Dependent Clause" and "Independent Clause".
You have described a "complex" sentence. - Simple sentence = An independent clause. - Compound sentence = Two independent clauses joined with a conjunction. - Complex sentence = An independent clause plus one or more dependent clauses.
"You played tennis anyway" is the independent clause; "although it was raining" is the dependent clause. An independent clause can stand on its own as a sentence, but a dependent clause cannot be a sentence.
Yes, the adverb clause "although the ostrich is a bird" would be followed by a comma.
Yes, the given sentence is a complex sentence. It consists of an independent clause, "Morse enjoys many sports," and a dependent clause, "although he likes running, biking, and swimming the most," joined together.
A complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause and at least one dependent clause. The independent clause can stand alone as a complete sentence, while the dependent clause relies on the independent clause to make sense.
That's correct. An independent clause is a group of words that can stand alone as a sentence because it expresses a complete thought. When it is missing a subordinate clause or other elements necessary for a complete sentence, it becomes a sentence fragment.
"Becky wanted a bicycle badly" is the independent clause. It can stand on its own. The rest of the sentence cannot, so it is a dependent clause.
A clause can not stand alone in a sentence, whereas an independent clause can stand alone in a sentence.
A subordinate independent clause is a type of clause that has both dependent and independent qualities. It can function independently as a complete sentence but is usually part of a larger sentence and relies on another clause for context or meaning. This type of clause often begins with a subordinating conjunction.
An independent clause is a sentence that can stand on its own.
no, its a sentence.
Only an independent clause can stand independently. A dependent clause is dependent on an independent clause.
An independent clause is a complete sentence that can stand on its own. A sentence must have a subject and a predicate in order to be considered an independent clause.
