Question
Identify the dependent clause from the following sentence.
Kelly eats fried food whenever she is away from home.
- Kelly eats fried food
- Whenever she is away from home
- None of the above
Hint:
- A Dependent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb but does not express a complete thought. A dependent clause cannot be a sentence.
- Often a dependent clause is marked by a dependent marker word. A dependent marker word is a word added to the beginning of an independent clause that makes it into a dependent clause. Example- after, as, as if etc
The correct answer is: Whenever she is away from home
Solution : Option (b) Whenever she is away from home.
Here , " Whenever she is away from home " has a subject and a verb but it cannot be a complete sentence as the question "what happens whenever she is away from home is left unanswered". Also, "whenever" is a dependent marker word.
