5. Subordinate Clauses

Subordinate Clauses are almost like complete sentences, but they always explain more about the Main Clause.

Now, let's take a look at some Relating words that start these subordinate clauses:
WHO    WHY    WHERE   WHEN    WHICH    WHAT    HOW    THAT

I don't know who she is.
(S + DON'T/DOESN'T + V1 + RELWORD + S + V1)

Mary will discover why they came. (S + WILL + V1 + RELWORD + S + V1)

Peter goes where the girls are laughing. (S +  + V1 + RELWORD + S + AM/ARE/IS + V1 + ING)

I didn't know that you are a lawman. (S + DON'T/DOESN'T + V1 + RELWORD + S + V1)

Can you tell me which city has the best roads? (CAN + S + V1 + RELWORD + S + V1)

Remember all sentences with Subordinate Clauses have 2 subjects and 2 verbs. You try one now.
