How could you combine two sentences with a dependent adjectival clause?
In English an independent clause is usually ended with a period. (a.k.a. a complete sentence). You can put together by putting a semicolon or a comma at the end of the clause so that the sentences run on smoothly but are not run-on sentences. i.e. (2 independent clauses) I have a red car that I will clean today. After I clean my red car, I'm going to go shopping. When combining them and adding a conjunctive adverb the sentence will read: I have a red car that I will clean today; thereafter, I'm going to go shopping. This is not accurate. You can only combine two independent clauses with a semi colon or a coordinating conjunction. Using a comma is called a commasplice and is considered a run on sentence. Use a semi colon or a conjunction such as: yet, and, so,but, or,nor, and for.
Words that join nouns or pronoun?
A noun is a person, place, thing, or idea. A pronoun is a word that substitutes for a noun. Example: Noun is "table." Pronoun is "it." I can say, "The table over there is full of doughnuts. It is covered with them." To join words, phrases, or clauses, we use conjunctions! Noun is "My sister." Pronoun is "I." Join them: "My sister and I" There are different ways to join words. Coordinating conjunctions include: and, but, or, nor, for, so, yet. These join nouns, pronouns, verbs, etc., as well as whole phrases and clauses. Words that describe nouns and pronouns are called adjectives. My sister and I live near the pretty girl, but we do not know her well. Here we've joined a noun (sister) and a pronoun (I) using a coordinating conjunction, we've used an adjective to describe another noun (the adjective is "pretty" which describes the noun "girl"), and we've added another independent clause using another coordinating conjunction (but).
