What’s the difference between an adjective clause and
1) An adjective clause describes a noun and comes after the noun it modifies, while a noun clause can act as the subject or object of a verb.
2) For example, "Write down the names of the people who are in your group" contains an adjective clause, while "I think that grandparents should help more in raising their grandchildren" contains a noun clause acting as the object of the verb "think."
3) A noun clause can often be identified because it follows and refers to a verb, uses a question word like who/what/when at the beginning, or is used in an indirect question.

This document provides information on likes and dislikes in French, definite and indefinite articles, and subject pronouns. It introduces how to express likes and dislikes using "aimer" and discusses the definite articles "le", "la", "l'", and "les" and indefinite articles "un", "une", and "des". It also explains that subject pronouns take the place of nouns as the subject of a sentence and lists the singular and plural first, second, and third person subject pronouns in French.
Definite and indefinite articles
Articles are either definite or indefinite. The indefinite article "a" or "an" is used when the speaker does not specify the noun, such as "I met a friend." The indefinite article "a" is used before consonant sounds, while "an" is used before vowel sounds. The definite article "the" refers to a specific noun known to both the speaker and listener, like "The president is giving a speech." When referring to a noun for the first time, an indefinite article is used, and then the definite article for subsequent references, such as "I live in a house. The house is quite old."

The document provides several examples of English sentences containing adjective phrases and their Arabic translations. It notes some challenges in translation due to differences in grammar structures between the languages.

This was a slide show I created to teach my classmates about sentence fragments. The sources I used are included in the slide show so that anyone may look and learn from these in a more in-depth manner if they choose to.
Sentence fragments
The document discusses different types of sentence fragments. There are 7 types: subordinate clause fragments, infinitive phrase fragments, afterthought fragments, lonely verb fragments, appositive fragments, participle phrase fragments, and intentional fragments. Each type is defined and an example is provided. The document also provides a strategy for identifying fragments by reading writing backwards.
Grammar: Subject, Predicate, Modifiers
The document discusses the key components of sentences: subjects, predicates, and modifiers. It defines subjects as the who or what in a sentence, and predicates as the part that tells something about the subject. Every sentence must have both a subject and a predicate. It also discusses verbs, subjects, compound subjects/predicates, and modifiers. Modifiers are optional elements that can be removed without changing the basic meaning of the sentence.
English Clauses
This document provides information about different types of clauses. It defines an independent clause as one that can stand alone as a complete sentence, while a dependent clause cannot stand alone and needs to be attached to an independent clause. There are three types of dependent clauses: noun clauses, adjective clauses, and adverb clauses. Noun clauses function as subjects, objects or complements. Adjective clauses modify or describe nouns and pronouns. Adverb clauses modify verbs, adjectives or other adverbs. The document includes examples and exercises to illustrate the different clause types.
Verb agreement inverted subject-verb
This document discusses verb agreement in sentences with inverted subject-verb order. It provides 5 situations where the subject and verb are inverted: 1) sentences beginning with a negative word, 2) sentences beginning with a place word, 3) direct questions, 4) conditional sentences beginning with "had", "were", or "should", and 5) comparative sentences using "than". It emphasizes that the verb and subject must agree in number and stresses common errors in questions with inverted subjects seen in the TOEFL exam.
Structure - Gerund and Infinitive
The document summarizes key concepts about gerunds and infinitives in English grammar. It defines gerunds as verb forms ending in "-ing" that function as nouns. It defines infinitives as verb phrases starting with "to" that can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs. The document then discusses the functions of gerunds and infinitives, including as subjects, objects, and subjective complements. It provides examples for each function. It also discusses the forms of to-infinitives and holds an exercise for students.
Adjectives
1. Adjectives modify nouns and provide additional information about them. Determiners like articles and possessives precede noun phrases.
2. There is generally an order for multiple adjectives before nouns - opinion adjectives come before fact adjectives, which follow a pattern of size, shape, age, color, origin, material, and purpose.
3. Comparative adjectives compare two things using "-er" or "more" and superlative adjectives express the highest degree using "-est" or "most".
Complete subjects and predicates
This document defines and provides examples of subjects, predicates, complete subjects, and complete predicates in sentences. It explains that the subject is the person, place, or thing performing the action of the sentence. The predicate is everything in the sentence except the subject. It also discusses how to identify subjects and predicates in different sentence structures, such as questions. The document concludes by asking the reader to identify the complete subject and complete predicate in 5 example sentences.
