Hi Teachers,<br/><br/>Could these be good explanations?<br/><br/>To report answers the conjunction ‘that’ introduces and connects the noun clause with the main clause.<br/><br/>e.g. Coke answered (the old lady) that they were just his work clothes.<br/><br/>Noun clause or Depedent Clause, 'that they were just his work clothes'.<br/><br/>Main Clause or Independent Clause. 'Coke answered (the old lady)'.<br/><br/>Thanks in advance
