Phrases and Clauses
Hi,
What is the sentence? A phrase, a main clause or a subordinate clause?
Everyone admires my mother (because she works very hard.) main clause
Although they were envious, (the audience loved the actress.) subordinate clause
From the penthouse, (the view was magnificent.) phrase
The information in brackets does not need to be analysed..it is just there if you need the rest of the sentence.
