Review: Identifying Clauses, Answer 10.2
Oops!
- Question:
- when the train arrived at the station
- Answer:
- The answer phrase is not correct.
- Explanation:
- You might have thought that this is a phrase because it is not a complete sentence; however, it does contain a subject (the train) and a predicate (arrived at the station). The subordinating conjunction when indicates that this clause is dependent on another clause in the sentence.
