There are two kinds of clauses: independent and dependent clauses. Most simply, an independent clause can form a complete sentence on its own and a dependent clause cannot (at least, not by itself). Think of it this way: an independent clause is like a cup of coffee, and a dependent clause is like a caffeine lover. Caffeine lovers are dependent on coffee, so the two can be joined (quite happily) to form a cohesive unit. Similarly, two cups of coffee, or two independent clauses, can be combined.
ï Adjective and adverb clauses need an independent clause to support it and a. comma in some instances. Familiarize yourself with the features of each category in the tables below, so you can decide if. your dependent clause needs an independent clause, complete thought, or a revision.
