Harvey's presence on the show is sure to hold a ton of promise for Season 4, especially because it means that Claire officially has someone in her corner to help her get a leg up on her husband (which, spoiler, is going to be very important to Claire's #goals this season!).
Independent clauses can stand alone as sentences. To be independent, a clause must contain a verb and asubject and not begin with a subordinating word or phrase.
independent & dependent clauses: coordination & subordination An independent person is one who can solve problems on his own, take care of his own needs, stand on his own two feet, so to speak. An independent clause (a clause is a group of words that contains at least one subject and one verb) is one that can stand on its own two feet--independently. You can join independent clauses if you want to. This is called coordination. A dependent person is one who needs help from another, more independent person. A dependent person needs to lean on someone stronger. A dependent clause is one that cannot stand on its own two feet--it needs an independent clause to lean on. You must join a dependent clause to an independent one. This is called subordination.
