Punctuate dependent clause following independent clause
Good afternoon. thanks for taking the time to address people's concern about grammar. I have been doing some reading on dependent(adverbial) clause following the independent clause and I have not been able find lucid explanation on how to punctuate it, especially when the adverbial dependent clause is restrictive or not nonrestrictive. Do you have materials you can share, please
