In the Epic of Gilgamesh, Lord Shamash urges Gilgamesh to attack Humbaba because Shamash strongly feels that Gilgamesh possesses the ability to defeat Humbaba in battle.  Lord Shamash despises Humbaba and manipulates Gilgamesh into killing him. Gilgamesh wants to kill Humbaba in order to prove his bravery and fighting prowess. Lord Shamash, in turn, plays upon Gilgamesh's ego in order to force him into killing his arch enemy.

"who are compassionate" What accurately describes this phrase? verb phrase, noun phrase, adjectival clause, or adverbial clause?
Ivahew [28]

The correct answer is adjectival clause.

An adjectival clause is a dependent clause that works to describe a noun in a sentence. It is usually made of a group of words instead of one word only. All the words work together to modify the noun or pronoun.

A dependent clause contains a subject and a verb but it's not a complete sentence and it can not stand alone.

Adjectival clauses begin with a relative pronoun that connects them to the word they describe. The relative pronouns are: that, where, then, who, which, why etc.

In the clause<em> who are compassionate</em>, the<em> who</em> is the relative pronoun. The clause refers and modifies the noun appearing before in the sentence.

I not understanding how to identify gerunds
Naya [18.7K]
First, you find the simple subject and simple predicate. 
If the '-ing' form of the verb is not part of the simple predicate, then determine how it is used in the sentence. If it's in a noun position, then it's a gerund. If it is used as an adjective, then it will be a participle.
