Hello people!
In this lesson, we are going to learn what is a noun clause.
What is a noun clause?
A noun clause is a clause that works as a noun in a sentence. It starts with the following conjunctions: what, whatever, whenever, when, where, which, whichever, who, whoever, whom, whomever, that, why, and how.
An noun clause is a part or fragment of a sentence; it cannot stand on its own.
It can act as the following in a sentence:
1. The subject of the sentence
2. The object of the sentence
3. The object of the preposition
4. The subject complement
Let's take some examples:
• Whatever you eat in breakfast is good for health.
"Whatever you eat in breakfast" is a noun clause that's working as the subject of the sentence. You can ask the question "WHAT" to find out the subject of the
sentence.
• I want to eat what you are eating.
"What you are eating" is a noun clause that is working as the object of the verb "eat".
I want to eat what?
What you are eating.
• We are going to where you went last night.
"Where you went last night" is a noun clause, working as the object of the preposition "to".
• You are what you think you are.
