There are two types of clauses: independent clauses and subordinate clauses. Independent clauses can stand alone as a complete sentence while subordinate clauses cannot. Subordinate clauses are used as adjectives, adverbs, or nouns. Adjective clauses modify nouns and begin with relative pronouns like who, whom, whose, which, and that. Adverb clauses modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs and begin with subordinating conjunctions like after, because, where, if, that, and than. Noun clauses are used like nouns and begin with that, if, whether or not.

Elm3 chart12 07
The document discusses different types of noun clauses introduced by wh- words like whether and if. It provides examples of how if-clauses and whether-clauses can function as objects of verbs or adjective complements. While if-clauses are commonly used in these ways, they are not as flexible and are not common as subjects or subject complements. Whether-clauses can function in all these ways. The document also notes that whether-clauses, but not if-clauses, can be used with "or not" directly following whether.
Elm3 chart12 06
This document discusses noun clauses introduced by wh- words like who, what, where, how. It provides examples of wh- noun clauses functioning as subjects, objects, subject complements, adjective complements, and objects of prepositions. It notes that wh- clauses do not follow the word order of wh- questions, and instead follow the pattern of wh- word + subject + verb. The document also contains a section correcting common errors in using wh- clauses.
Elm3 chart12 04
Section A discusses how verbs like see, believe, feel, guess, imagine, know, suppose, and think are often used with that clauses as their object. These verbs express thoughts, beliefs, attitudes, or feelings about the information in the that clause. That clauses used as the object of a verb are called verb complements or verb completers.
Section B notes that in speaking, the word "that" is often omitted at the beginning of noun clauses, but it is usually included in writing to make the writing easier to understand. Verbs like answer, argue, explain, reply, and understand usually require the inclusion of "that" after them in both conversation and writing.
Phrasal verbs presentation
A phrasal verb is a verb combined with a preposition or adverb to create a meaning different from the original verb. Phrasal verbs are commonly used in spoken English and informal writing but should be avoided in academic writing. Examples are given of transitive phrasal verbs, which require an object, and intransitive phrasal verbs, which do not. The placement of the object with transitive phrasal verbs can vary depending on the specific verb.
Dependent & subordinate clauses
This document discusses different types of clauses in English sentences. An independent clause can stand alone as a complete thought and sentence, while a subordinate clause does not express a complete thought on its own and must be part of a larger sentence. Subordinate clauses are introduced by subordinating conjunctions like "when", "because", and "before", and cannot stand alone as fragments without an independent clause. Determining if a clause is independent or subordinate can be tested by adding "I believe that..." before it - if it sounds like a complete sentence, it is independent, and if it sounds like a fragment, it is subordinate.
Phrase, clause and sentence structure
This document discusses different types of sentences including simple, compound, and complex sentences. It defines sentences formally based on punctuation and notionally based on meaning. Sentences are made up of clauses, which are made up of phrases, which are made up of words. Words can have formal labels like nouns or functional labels like subject based on their role. The basic sentence patterns and types are described. Coordination, subordination, and embedding are explained. Formal and semantic labels for sentences are defined. Passivization is briefly covered.
4 phrasal verb types
The document discusses 4 types of phrasal verbs in English. Type 1 consists of an intransitive verb with 2 inseparable words. Type 2 has a transitive verb with 2 inseparable words and an object, where the pronoun object comes after. Type 3 is also transitive but the particle can come before or after the object or pronoun object. Type 4 has 3 inseparable words with an object and the pronoun object always comes last. Examples are provided to illustrate the 4 types of phrasal verbs.
Clauses
The document defines and provides examples of different types of clauses:
- Main clauses are independent and can stand alone as a sentence, while subordinate clauses cannot stand alone and must be joined to a main clause.
- Coordinating clauses join two independent clauses of equal importance with conjunctions like "and" or "but".
- Subordinate clauses include noun clauses that act as nouns, relative clauses that provide additional information about a noun, and adverbial clauses that modify verbs, adjectives or other adverbs by describing place, time, condition and more.

Module 9 lesson 9.1
This document reviews sentence types including complete sentences, sentence fragments, and run-on sentences. It defines a sentence as having a subject, verb, and expressing a complete thought. Sentence fragments are groups of words that are missing either a subject, verb, or do not express a complete thought. Run-on sentences incorrectly join two independent clauses without proper punctuation. Examples are provided of fragments and run-on sentences, along with their corrected versions.
Verbs
Verbs are the energy of sentences and are often found at their center. There are three main types of verbs: action verbs, linking verbs, and helping verbs. A verb phrase consists of a main verb and one or more helping verbs, which help express the action or state of being. Linking verbs connect the subject to a subject complement that identifies or describes the subject. Verbs can also be transitive or intransitive, with transitive verbs expressing an action directed at an object and intransitive verbs not requiring an object.
E3 Unit 6 multi word verbs
This document discusses multi-word verbs in English, which are sometimes called phrasal verbs. It explains that multi-word verbs are made up of a verb and a particle or particles. They can be transitive or intransitive, separable or inseparable. The document provides examples of different types of multi-word verbs such as phrasal verbs, prepositional verbs, and phrasal-prepositional verbs. It emphasizes the importance of understanding whether a multi-word verb is separable or inseparable and where to place objects with the verb.
Verbals
The document discusses three types of verbals: gerunds, participles, and infinitives. It provides details on gerunds and participles. Gerunds are verbal nouns that end in "-ing" and can function as subjects, objects, or possessives. Participles are verbal adjectives that end in "-ing", "-ed", "-d", or "-en" and always modify nouns. Both gerunds and participles can take objects or modifiers.
Multiword verbs
Multiword verbs consist of a verb and one or two particles or prepositions. There are three types: phrasal verbs which are verb+adverb, prepositional verbs which are verb+preposition, and phrasal-prepositional verbs which are verb+adverb+preposition. Phrasal verbs can be transitive or intransitive and separable phrasal verbs allow separation of the verb and particle when used with a direct object but not with pronouns. Prepositional and phrasal-prepositional verbs are always used with a direct object and cannot be separated.
General Grammar
This document provides an overview of general grammar definitions and concepts that will be covered in an English 101 course, including 6 sections that will be examined: pronouns and nouns, commas, semicolons and colons, subject-verb agreement, possession, and clauses. It defines key terms such as subjects, predicates, independent and dependent clauses. For each grammar concept, such as pronouns and nouns, commas, etc., it provides brief rules and examples to illustrate proper usage. The document concludes with a section on the professor's pet peeves regarding writing.
Lec 2
The document defines different types of pronouns including personal pronouns, possessive pronouns, demonstrative pronouns, interrogative pronouns, indefinite pronouns, reciprocal pronouns, and reflexive pronouns. It provides examples for each type of pronoun and discusses their correct usage.
Phrasal Verbs And Prepositional Verbs
Phrasal verbs are multi-word verbs made up of a verb and another word, such as an adverb. They can be intransitive, with no direct object, or transitive, with a direct object. Examples of phrasal verbs provided are "get up", "break down", "put off", and "turn down". Prepositional verbs are also multi-word verbs consisting of a verb and preposition, and they always take a direct object. Examples given are "believe in", "look after", and "wait for". Unlike phrasal verbs, the parts of prepositional verbs cannot be separated and must be used together.
Transitive and intransitive
The document discusses transitive and intransitive verbs. A transitive verb has a direct object that receives the action of the verb, while an intransitive verb does not have a direct object. To determine if a verb is transitive or intransitive, ask what or whom after the verb. If there is a direct object, the verb is transitive; if there is no direct object, the verb is intransitive. Examples are provided to illustrate transitive verbs like "wrote" and "shook" as well as intransitive verbs like "applauded" and "shook." Verbs are complex but essential to sentences.
Verb tense
The document discusses verb tenses in English including the 6 main tenses (present, past, future, present perfect, past perfect, future perfect) and how they indicate the time of the action. It also covers regular and irregular verb forms, the principal parts of verbs, and conjugating verbs by tense, person, and number.
Affirmative and Negative Agreement
To avoid unnecessary repetition of words, we use different words and rules known as Affirmative and Negative Agreement. To make our conversational English look good, we may pay attention to the rules of these agreements.
Pronouns slides
The document discusses personal pronouns and their uses as subject and object pronouns. It provides tables listing the personal pronouns for subjects and objects, such as "I", "you", "they", "we", "he", "she", and "it". Examples are given for sentences using pronouns as both subjects and objects in phrases like "I love you" and "You love me".
Conjunctions
Conjunctions are words that link words, phrases, clauses and sentences. There are different types of conjunctions including coordinating conjunctions which join similar elements like subjects and verbs. Correlative conjunctions always come in pairs and join similar elements. Subordinating conjunctions are important for creating subordinating clauses and place the adverbial clause before or after the main clause. Proper use of conjunctions is important for joining elements in a sentence.
VERB 5
The document discusses three types of verbs: linking verbs, action verbs, and verb phrases. Linking verbs express a state of being and link the subject and predicate. Action verbs express an action or doing word. Verb phrases consist of a helping verb and a main verb and can be composed of more than one word, such as "is reading" or "will go." Examples of each verb type are provided.
Phrases - what are phrases and types of phrases
This document defines and provides examples of different types of phrases. A phrase is a group of words that does not contain both a subject and predicate. There are seven main types of phrases: verb phrases, prepositional phrases, participial phrases, infinitive phrases, gerund phrases, appositive phrases, and adverbial phrases. Each type is defined and an example is given to illustrate how it functions within a sentence.
Verbs
Verbs show actions or states of being and have different forms depending on whether they are regular or irregular. The main types of verbs are regular verbs, irregular verbs, and modal verbs. Regular verbs follow predictable conjugation rules while irregular verbs must be memorized. Modal verbs are a special class of auxiliary verbs used to show possibility, obligation, or permission and have unique conjugation patterns.

Direct and Indirect Object Pronouns
This document discusses direct object pronouns, which are words like me, him, us, and them that are used instead of nouns when referring to the person or thing most directly affected by the verb. Direct object pronouns receive the action of the verb and can replace direct objects in sentences. Examples are provided to illustrate replacing nouns like "the books" and "that skirt" with the direct object pronouns "them" and "it". The purpose and rules for identifying direct objects are explained, along with examples of direct object pronoun placement and a reminder about indirect object pronouns.
Sentence fragments

Various ways of identifying and revising fragments are discussed, including attaching phrases or dependent clauses to nearby independent clauses.
Prepositions
The document defines a preposition as a word that governs and usually precedes a noun or pronoun to express the relationship between that noun or pronoun and another element in a clause. It provides examples of simple prepositions like "under", "behind", and "among" and explains they show the relationship between a subject and object. The document also defines compound prepositions as those formed by prefixing a preposition to a noun, adjective or adverb, and phrasal prepositions as a series of words or phrases that relate the object of a preposition to the rest of the sentence.
Prepositions
This document provides examples and explanations of various English prepositions through pictures and sentences. It begins by introducing prepositions like behind, under, on, in front of, beside, between, and near. Then it discusses other prepositions like after, from, before, since, until, at, on, by, for. Examples are given showing how to use these prepositions properly in sentences. More prepositions are introduced like round, about, towards, at, to.

- Transitive verbs have a direct object receiving the verb's action, while intransitive verbs do not take direct objects. Whether a verb is transitive or intransitive can depend on how it is used in a sentence.
