  6. Adjectival Clause • A group of words with a subject and a verb that acts as an adjective by describing a noun or pronoun. Relative pronouns (who, whom, whose, which, that) usually introduce the adjectival clause but they may also begin with relative adverbs (when, where, why), such as: The young man who is sitting near the door is my son.

  7. Adverbial Clause: • A dependent clause beginning with a subordinate conjunction that acts as an adverb by modifying a verb, adjective, or other adverb (e.g., I will go home when the party is over.)
