The independent clauses are the ones conveying a full meaning and/or preceded by a coordinate preposition, as opposed to the dependent ones.

Independent clauses:

  • "The seventh graders held a dance that night, and the eighth graders saw a play."
  • "Isaac Newton described the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration, and he made discoveries in optics and mathematics."
  • "Nikki has learned some computer coding, but she also wants to study graphic design."
  • "The Jayhawks are a favorite in today's game, so a trip to the playoffs could be in their future."

Dependent clauses:

  • "Even though they were exhausted from their long day."
  • "To name just a few of his contributions to science."
  • "Which is being taught at the community center this winter."
  • "After a huge victory last week."

<h3>What is an independent clause?</h3>

An independent clause contains a subject and a predicate, and it can be preceded by a coordinate conjunction. The coordinate conjunctions are:

  • For
  • And
  • Nor
  • But
  • Or
  • Yet
  • So

Independent clauses convey a complete meaning or a full thought on their own, which means they can be completely understood even if alone. Example:

  • I saw a movie last night. But I didn't like it.

<h3>What is a dependent clause?</h3>

Dependent clauses do not convey a complete meaning on their own. They follow subordinate conjunctions and need a main clause to complete their meaning. Examples of subordinate conjunctions are:

  • Even though
  • After
  • Because
  • While

With the information above in mind, we can conclude the answer given above is correct.

In southern black culture, folktale retellings were a source of comfort.

Even though Southern blacks were not taught to read or write, they are still learned. They learn through the stories they have heard since childhood and they impart their learning by sharing these stories to their brood. The stories that were orally narrated were a source of comfort as well as the bond of continuity of the families from generation to generation.</span><span>
