What is the independent clause in the sentence: "Edgar Allan Poe was an American author who wrote gothic and macabre short stories."

Answer:

Edgar Allan Poe was an American author

Explanation:

The independent clause is a clause that has a subject and a predicate and can form a complete sentence standing alone.  

The clause Edgar Allan Poe was an American author expresses a complete thought and can stand alone as a sentence.

The clause <em>who wrote gothic and macabre short stories</em> can't stand alone as a sentence and is, therefore, a dependent clause.

What does the phrase "Seeds of courage began to sprout" mean symbolically?
kykrilka [37]
Seeds begin as a very small object or device, just like our courage. We only need a tiny little seed of courage for it to grow, and once you give that little courage it continues to grow.
