subordinate
An alternative term for a main clause is an independent clause.
Yes, you should use a comma to separate a dependent clause and a verb.
The sentence "I went to the store" is an example of a main clause ("I went to the store") that can stand alone. Adding a dependent clause, such as "after work," would give additional context and complete the meaning of the sentence: "I went to the store after work."
Independent clause: "I went to the store." Dependent clause: "Because it was raining."
This is largely a matter of definition. Some restrict the term "dependent" clause to clauses that include relative pronouns, but most include all subordinate clauses, which could be defined as clauses that because of the presence in the clause of a relative pronoun or a subordinating conjunction or the absence in the clause of any "active" verb (i.e., a verb that is not an infinitive, gerund, or participle) can only properly be used in a sentence that also includes a clause not subject to any of these characteristics of a subordinate clause and therefore is termed and "independent". Note that a subordinate clause may be included in an independent clause.
A clause that does not make sense without the presence of another clause is called a dependent clause.
An insubordinate clause is just another word for an Independent clause. A subordinate clause is just another word for a Dependent clause. An Independent clause is a sentence that can stand by itself and a dependent clause can't stand by itself.
