SP #21 – Restrictive Adjective Clause • A clause must have a subject and a verb (unlike a phrase) • A clause may be independent and be its own sentence. • The ball bounced down the road. • Subject Verb- (Prep Phrase) • A clause may be DEPENDENT, which means it can NOT be its own sentence • It must “connect” to an independent clause.

Dependent Clauses may be: • Adverbial Clauses (“because”, “since”) • Adjective Clauses – connecting to NOUNS • Restrictive Adjective Clause – dependent clause (Subj & Verb), connecting to a noun, that is necessary to the meaning of the sentence. – Without the Rest Adj Clause, the sentence meaning changes • Common Triggers (Who, Whom, Whose, Which, That)
