The subordinate clause here is - "who just finished the marathon". It is an adjective, a part of the subject "the woman who just finished the marathon". That subordinate clause describes the subject in more detail.

Subordinate clause: who just finished the marathon (ADJECTIVE CLAUSE).

A clause is a group of related words that have at least a subject and a verb. It may express a complete thought (independent clause) or it may not (dependent or subordinate clauses).

"who just finished the marathon" is a subordinate clause as it can not stand alone as a full sentence and have a coherent meaning. And it is also an adjective clause because it functions as an adjective: it describes or gives characteristics to the noun "the woman", and begins with a relative pronoun "who" (which is common in subordinate clauses).

What change was made in the second sentence?

ElenaW [278]

The change that was made in the second sentence is that it created a compound sentence. The correct answer is option B. The compound subject now has two independent clauses: "The holidays are just around the corner" and "I need to go shopping". The independent clauses are connected with the coordinating conjunction "so".

Which of the following is a predicate?

Kamila [148]

Answer:

B. The lovely young ballet company

Explanation:

I will be completly honest! I am horrible at predicates so I looked it up and here is an example off the internet.

Here's an example. In the sentence "The wall is purple," the subject is "wall," the predicate adjective is "purple" and the linking verb is "is." So, it's subject, verb, and predicate adjective.

pred·i·cate

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Present is the right answer.

Explanation:

It is not past or present participle because the verb is not in a form wich ends in 'ing'. Past is also not correct because the verb is not in past tense, and she is talking about what's currently happening. Therefore Present should the right one.
