Subordinate Clauses
Hello. I'm new. I've only found this site moments ago and I'm sure that I will be back here quite frequently. But for now, I just have one quick question.
I understand that a subordinate clause must be attached to the main clause of a sentence and that that sentence should sound like a complete thought. I know what the formal subordinate clauses are, however, can the pronoun 'we' signal a subordinate clause if the rest of the sentence doesn't sound complete?

Hi Ma'sma, So glad you have joined us. Can you please give an example of what you mean? There is nothing unique about "we" that I know of, but perhaps seeing an example would make it more clear.

Wow! I wasn't expecting someone to get back to me so fast. The sentence I am wondering about does not sound like a complete thought.
Thanks anyways, but I think I answered my own question. The sentence is not a complete thought; however, in context with the rest of the paragraph it sounds proper.
