Question
Identify the independent clause from the following sentence.
We moved to LA after I graduated.
- We moved to LA
- After I graduated
- None of the above
Hint:
An independent clause is a clause that has a meaning in itself. It can express a complete thought. An independent clause has a subject and a predicate.
The correct answer is: We moved to LA
"We moved to LA" is the independent clause. Because it can express meaning by itself, it has the subject 'We' and the predicate 'moved to LA'.
"After I graduated" can not mean anything independently without the help of the independent clause.
