Noun Clauses: Advanced English Grammar | A Noun Clause is a Part of Speech Classed as a Noun

[@vi683]

In the last two examples, why is "that..." not an adverbial clause to modify an adjective rather than a noun clause. Please, teacher!

[@thelearningdepot]

Great question. Technically, a noun clause that functions as an adjective complement could be classed as an adverb since it’s modifying an adjective. Some grammar books don’t class the adjective complement as a noun clause. When you’re in doubt if a clause is a noun clause, substitute a pronoun for the clause.

After hours and hours trying to understand noun clause, I've finally found a video worthy of my time. It went in depth and identify the reasons why a noun clause is actually the type of noun clause that it is.

[@mohammadjaleel7295]

The trust will award whoever sings the best song a prize. In this sentence, "whoever sings the best song" is a noun clause that functions as the direct object of the verb "award." It answers the question of "what" the trust will award. A noun clause is a dependent clause that acts as a noun within a sentence. In this case, it represents the person who will receive the prize based on their singing ability. Errors: The original text was grammatically correct, so no changes were necessary. The explanation provided was clear and accurate.

[@1968tukta]

When a noun clause is used as an object complement, it functions as an adjective clause. For example: I never believed his story that the dog ate his homework. The clause "that the dog ate his homework" is also an adjective clause because it describes the noun "story". Is that right?

Tahnk you so much for the lecture! I have one question about the following sentence "You need to be aware what kind of property best suits you." Is this sentence grammarly correct? Can we waive the "of" after aware? Some people said the noun clause led by "what" can be seen as a complement for the "aware", which I cannot understand.

[@marwaabdulateef4597]

Thank you for the wonderful video I just have a question How to distinguish between the adjectival clause and appositive noun clause. I found this very hard to distinguish between them It is mentioned that we can replace a noun clause with a pronoun, but this won't work with appositive. Also both followed a noun that modifies and both considered as additional information and don't affect the structure of the sentence in case we omit them. Thanks in advance

[@thelearningdepot]

Great question. An adjective clause modifies or describes a noun or pronoun, and it will begin with a relative pronoun or even an adverb. An appositive identifies, defines or renames a noun or pronoun. Hope this helps.

[@gulfemlalkirte9712]

Hello. First of all I would like to contribute something to your page if possible. Not sure how to go about that. You have been so helpful with my questions. Also, in the sentence, I will eat whatever is available.----Isn't this a noun clause? Another site labelled it as a adjective clause. A pronoun can be substituted for the clause.

[@baycityworldful]

Hello: Noun clause question: In the sentence "Grace thinks that cookies are better than muffins." . . . Is this a noun clause? If so, is it a subject complement? ( clause following a stative verb thinks), an appositive clause, a direct object, or an object complement? (defines /describes what Grace thinks.) Or is it an adverb clause? I tend to think a noun clause acting as an object complement. This will settle a dispute we are having. Thank you.

[@thelearningdepot]

It may be defined as a noun clause and also the direct object of "thinks". Please read the pinned comment since it may clarify further.

I become worried when I heard the hurricane is coming. here when the clause is an adverbial clause to function to tell the time. I don't understand why you said it is a noun clause.

[@thelearningdepot]

Noun clauses usually begin with the subordinating conjunction that. However, other words that may begin a noun clause are if, how, what, whatever, when, where, whether, which, who, whoever, whom and why. It’s not really referring to “time” in this example.

[@mohammadjaleel7295]

You are correct to be skeptical. "Whoever completes the project by Friday" is **not** a noun clause functioning as an indirect object. Here's why: * **Noun Clauses:** These clauses act as nouns within a sentence. They can be the subject, object of a verb, object of a preposition, or even the complement of a verb. * **Indirect Objects:** These are the recipients of the direct object. They answer the question "to whom?" or "for whom?" Let's break down your sentence: * **Subject:** "My teacher" * **Verb:** "gives" * **Direct Object:** "extra credit" The phrase "whoever completes the project by Friday" is actually a **noun clause functioning as the object of the preposition "to."** Here's how it works: 1. **Prepositional Phrase:** The entire phrase "to whoever completes the project by Friday" acts as a prepositional phrase. 2. **Preposition:** The preposition is "to." 3. **Object of the Preposition:** The noun clause "whoever completes the project by Friday" is the object of the preposition "to." **Simplified Example:** Imagine the sentence: "My teacher gives extra credit to the students." In this simpler version, "the students" is the object of the preposition "to." The noun clause in your original sentence is essentially playing the same role. **The Learning Depot's Misinterpretation:** The statement that the noun clause is an indirect object might be a misunderstanding of how indirect objects work. Indirect objects are typically nouns or pronouns that receive the direct object, and they are not usually found within prepositional phrases. **In conclusion:** The noun clause "whoever completes the project by Friday" is the object of the preposition "to" and not an indirect object.
