Clauses-noun/adverbial
I'm sorry at how messy this sentence is; I didn't write it.
Another example of discrimination is if a child in Peru does not know Spanish, they are discouraged from attending schools where Spanish is the main and formal language.
Are the words in italics an adverbial clause even though it appears to be a noun complement (noun clause).
"Another example of discrimination is if a child who does not know Spanish in Peru is discouraged to attend a school where Spanish is the main and formal language. "
Now that there is no main clause follwing the 'if' clause, it appears to be noun clause...

Adverb clauses express when, why, opposition and conditions and are dependent clauses
no, it isn't. what you wrote there is a noun clause. Adverbial clauses help the verb to make sense. Let me show you some examples.
1) He gave me a call WHEN he arrived in town (WHEN)
2) Get money by se

Hi, no I'm not from there; it is a sentence I got from the internet.
Um, yea I know what an adverb clause expressess. The only reason I ask is because the noun clause was followed by a main clause (and a comma). It seems weird to have a main clause followed by a noun clause. The second sentence I provided seemed more obvious to me that it was a noun clause as there is no main clause follo

Yeah. Well if I can help you think about this
there are two noun phrases right? The first one on the left is a noun phrase that performs as the subject within the whole sentence, after IS the noun phrase is part of the predicate.

there are two noun phrases right?
I do not believe so. The subject is a noun phrase, but the predicate is a noun clause: (child is the subject, does know is the finite verb).
I may re-post the question and ask for an analysis of the sentence. This may make it easier to answer my conundrum.
