Welcome to Mr. Tawil.

00:02.550 --> 00:05.270
Today we're going to talk about a..

00:05.400 --> 00:07.710
Claus let's get started.

00:10.270 --> 00:17.290
Remember that a dependent or a subordinate clause gives additional information to the main sentence.

00:17.290 --> 00:21.460
Thus it can not stand alone as a separate sentence.

00:21.460 --> 00:24.200
Have a look at the example over here.

00:24.460 --> 00:29.660
When she comes back home after a long day at work she likes to take a bath.

00:29.830 --> 00:37.030
Now the dependent or the subordinate clause in the sentence is when she comes back home after a long

00:37.030 --> 00:41.950
day at work and it's used to give us additional information.

00:41.950 --> 00:50.790
But the main sentence she likes to take a bath an adjective clause is a dependent clause that modifies

00:51.120 --> 00:56.030
nouns or pronouns providing additional information.

00:56.160 --> 01:03.720
Have a look at the example over here the house where we were born was demolished last month.

01:04.650 --> 01:11.070
Now the adjective clause in the sentence where we were born modifies the noun house

01:14.160 --> 01:15.460
an adjective clause.

01:15.460 --> 01:18.370
Can't begin with words such as that.

01:18.420 --> 01:19.710
Who.

01:20.010 --> 01:21.620
Whose which.

01:21.920 --> 01:24.850
When where and why.

01:24.870 --> 01:27.980
Have a look at the example below.

01:27.990 --> 01:37.000
Children whose parents spend a lot of time with them are bound to be happier.

01:37.320 --> 01:40.730
Now there are two types of adjective clauses.

01:40.740 --> 01:49.000
Let's have a look at those types a are restrictive or essential adjective clause.

01:49.240 --> 01:56.950
Now a restrictive or essential adjective clause provides information that is necessary to distinguish

01:57.160 --> 01:58.600
the modified word.

01:58.750 --> 02:01.460
Thus it can not be admitted.

02:01.600 --> 02:08.260
Now these clauses usually begin with that and are not set off with commas.

02:08.260 --> 02:16.780
Have a look at the example over here the English course that antiques is aimed at writing skills.

02:16.780 --> 02:24.100
Now there are different types of English courses but the peculiarity of the course that antiques is

02:24.100 --> 02:34.950
that it is aimed at writing skills be and not restrictive or nonessential adjective clause.

02:35.040 --> 02:41.660
Now a non restrictive or non essential adjective clause provides additional information.

02:41.790 --> 02:46.550
Thus it can be admitted without any loss of meaning.

02:46.560 --> 02:53.610
Now these clauses usually begin with which and are always set off with course.

02:53.690 --> 03:03.190
Have a look at the example below bananas which I E daily are packed with nutrients and vitamins meaning

03:03.220 --> 03:08.970
that bananas are very healthy by the way I eat them every day.

03:09.040 --> 03:14.410
Now this additional information doesn't change the fact that bananas are healthy.
