Review: Noun, Adjective and Adverb Clauses, Answer 8.2

Good Work!

Question:

That is the place where Wolfe’s and Montcalm’s armies fought.

Answer:

The answer adjective clause is correct.

Explanation:

In this tricky example, the subordinating conjunction where could have been misleading. In fact, the clause does not answer the adverb question where? but rather it answers the adjective question which place? This is an adjective clause, modifying the noun place.
