Adjective or Relative Clause Subordinate
Adjective or Relative Clause Subordinate
Adjective or Relative Clause Subordinate: An Adjective Clause is a group of words which contains a Subject and a predicate of its own, and does the work of an Adjective.
For Example: The umbrella with a broken handle is mine. [ Which umbrella ? ]
In the sentence the words, with a broken handle, describes the umbrella ; that is, it qualifies the noun umbrella, and does the work of an Adjective. It is what we call an Adjective phrase.
The umbrella which has a broken handle is mine. [ Which umbrella ? ]
In the above sentence the words which has a broken handle, also describes the umbrella and so does the work of an Adjective. But because it contains a Subject and a Predicate of its own, it is called an Adjective Clause.
Adjective Clause : While writing an adjective clause, you are required to observe the following rules.
| Who, whose, whom | for living beings |
| Which, of which, which | for non-living things and animals |
| 'That' may be used | for 'who & which' But 'that' is usually used if the antecedent is preceded by 'the same, all, only, nothing, little, few, superlative degree, interrogative pronoun, some, any,'. |
| 'As' is used | after 'the same or such' in place of who or which. [Refer to Note (2) under the Box] |
'Why' is used 'When' is used 'Where' is used 'How' is used | after reason as an antecedent. after time as an antecedent. after place as an antecedent. after manner as an antecedent. |

My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
