The phrase "hooray these sentences are not very difficult yet" contains an independent clause: "these sentences are not very difficult yet." The word "hooray" serves as an exclamation and is not part of a grammatical clause. The independent clause can stand alone as a complete sentence.
No. A clause is more than one word. Were is the past form of are. In this sentence -- The boy who we met yesterday is very strange. The clause - who we met yesterday - is a relative clause. It begins with the relative pronoun - who.
An independent clause is a group of words that can stand on their own as a sentence. Something like "Johnny ate the apples." An independent clause has to have the same requirements as a sentence (Subject and verb), and has to be able to stand alone.The reason it isn't the same thing as a sentence is that we discuss independent and dependent clauses as parts of simple, compound, and complex sentences. Therefore, the sentence could be "Johnny ate the apples, which prevented mom from making her famous apple pie." "Johnny ate the apples" is still an independent clause, but it is part of a larger sentence (in this case it is joined to a dependent clause and the sentence is a complex sentence).If the sentence were joined to another independent clause, the sentence would be compound (and yes, you can have compound-complex sentences, which require at least two independent clauses and one dependent clause).AnswerPart of a sentence that makes sense by itself. Here is an example. the italics is the independent clause.The dog ran very far across the beach.
very is an adverb (technically an adverb clause = adverb+adjective) in this sentence, excited is an adjective that's being modified by the word very.
This is a sentence (or clause), not a phrase. The adjective is dumb, and the adverb is very, modifying dumb. So "very dumb" is the adjective phrase.

A relative clause adds more information about the noun it relates to. Examples:The woman who called was a coworker.The person to whom I gave the report was the manager.The student whose bike was stolen was very upset.
