BROADER CONCEPT
SCOPE NOTE
- Relative noun clauses are dependent clauses that act like a noun. They serve the exact same function as a noun. They can be a subject, object, or complement. Like the adverb clause, a noun clause usually begins with a relative pronoun. However, it can also begin with a subordinate conjunction. A noun clause will not stand alone. Because a noun clause works as a noun, it can be used many different ways in a sentence. It will begin with a relative pronoun or relative adverb. These would include 'who,' 'whom,' 'whose,' 'that,' and 'which' for a pronoun and 'when,' 'where,' or 'why' for an adverb. Looking for these signal words can help you identify this type of clause.
