I is used because it completes the second verb in the clause. He is better than I am. Here 'am' is implied. Me is a pronoun object. If you use me it becomes a simple sentence with one verb. Both are correct.

There is no difference between independent clauses and a sentence. It is only the subordinate clause that does not have a subject of its own and is dependent on the main clause.

@TheMindspringsEnglishTeacher 4 года назад

Was is the past tense of is. The verbs am, is, are, was, were, will be, are all form of the primary verb "to be". Being and been are the present and past participle forms added to make continuous (is being) and perfect tenses. (has been). All verbs!

@ankurseth6739 3 года назад

Hello Mam, Please look at this sentence: The stage at which cancer is curable is already over. Question: I can deduce that the group of words("at which cancer is curable") is modifying the noun(stage), so the group of words is playing adjectival function. However, I don't know what to call this group of words. The group starts with a preposition (at), so maybe it is a preposition phrase. But then I will have to call the sub-group("which cancer is curable") a noun clause. However, doing so doesn't make sense. Please guide me!

@TheMindspringsEnglishTeacher 3 года назад

It cannot be a phrase simply because it contains a verb 'is'. What is your main clause? The stage is already over. Which stage? 'at which cancer is curable'. adjectival clause. the pronoun 'which' stands for 'stage'. It would have read as: the stage at (the stage) cancer is curable. so the prepositional phrase is simply 'at which' or 'at the stage'. It is the 'which' that complicates this.

@@TheMindspringsEnglishTeacher Got it! It is a relative clause that happens to begin with a preposition (before the relative pronoun).

@TheMindspringsEnglishTeacher 2 года назад

I have answered this question before on the comments section. Actually you can do it both ways depending on which question you ask. If you ask the verb what? you get a noun clause where the whole phrase is taken as 'something' . If you ask the noun which? you get an adjectival clause. So you are right as well. In a combined sentence as we cannot see the original it is hard to tell what the original conjunction was. But I think your analysis is better than mine.

Students doing the activity “ wearing “ Ducks doing the activity “swimming Boats doing the activity “carrying “ So we can say they are gerund s BUT If we think like “wearing “ is modifying the noun students 🧐🧐🧐it can be an adjective ( participle) am i right?🙏🏼

This really helped thank you ...I would like to ask if...Wherever there is a dictator,there is unrest-is an adverbal clause...and...If Hitler was not selected as president,the holocaust would not have happened,is an adverbal clause as well

@TheMindspringsEnglishTeacher 3 года назад

Yes. The first one is of place - answering where? ans: wherever. The second one is of conditional time - answering What if ? ans: if

Nice video mam, have few doubts while practicing. In the sentence "I have forgotten to play chess". I asked the question what have I forgotten which should be a noun phrase. However the answer is Adverb phrase. Can you please help me

@TheMindspringsEnglishTeacher Год назад

For noun phrase you ask the question who or what to the verb. Here the verb is 'have forgotten'. What? 'to play chess'. This is a noun phrase. To get an adverb phrase you need to ask the verb questions like when, where, why, how, although what?, what if? Do you get the answer 'to play chess'? No. Hence it is a noun phrase.

Ma'am I have a doubt , after classification of particular type of clause is done then while classifying it's type should we look at its subordinator ?? For Eg. = While classifying type of adverb clause should we look at it's subordinator? Also Ma'am you teach very well, I was in search of experienced and we'll versed teacher like you, Thank You.

@TheMindspringsEnglishTeacher 2 года назад

Thank you Soham. By subordinator I think you mean the marker like when, where, because, if, although etc. right? Yes you can look at them but they are not reliable. You need to ask the question when? where? why? how? what if? although what? etc. to the verb to get the clause as your answer. For noun clause ask the verb who? or what? to get the clause as answer and for adjective clause ask which? or what kind? to the noun (not verb) This is the acid test.

Kindly help to identify clause in following sentences. 1. You should be content and pleased with what you have these days since to complain of high prices does not speak well of you. 2.Those in trouble should realise that life is not as easy as they thought it to be, though no difficulty is beyond solution.

The earthquake shook the buildings, but other than things falling off the shelves, it didn't do too much damage. Please help be identify clauses in above sentence. Here is my take :- IC1: The earthquake shook the buildings Phrase1 : other than things falling off the shelves (There is no verb so it look like a phrase , but which type of phrase is it?) IC2 : it didn't do too much damage

@TheMindspringsEnglishTeacher 4 года назад

Is the phrase attached to IC1 or IC2? First answer that

@ankurseth6739 4 года назад

@@TheMindspringsEnglishTeacher Since 'but' is a coordinating conjunction, the phrase is attached to IC2
