Identify the dependent clause in the following sentence:
My parents say I have to finish all my homework before I am allowed to see my
friends.
A)My parents say
B)I have to finish all my homework
C)Before I am allowed to see my friends
D)Finish my homework

Respuesta :

The dependent clause in a sentence is that which cannot make meaning when it stands alone. In the sentence, the dependent clause is;

  • C) Before I am allowed to see my friends

An independent clause is that which makes complete meaning on its own. We can segment this sentence into two as follows:

1. My parents say I have to finish all my homework

2. Before I am allowed to see my  friends

The first part is the independent clause because it makes complete meaning. The second part is dependent on the first to have a complete meaning.

Therefore, sentence C is the dependent clause.
