The house that surrounds me while I sleep is built on undermined ground; far beneath my bed, the floor, the house’s foundations,

the stopes and passages of gold mines have hollowed the rock, and when some face trembles, detaches, and falls, three thousand feet below, the whole house shifts slightly, bringing uneasy strain to the balance and counterbalance of brick, cement, wood, and glass that hold it as a structure around me.

Select the words of the complete subordinate clause in the sentence below. Then identify it as either an adjective or an adverb
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Subordinate clause: "that they could outsmart the law"

Clause type: Adjective clause

Explanation:

A subordinate or dependent clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb that does not express a complete thought on its own, and therefore it cannot stand by itself: it needs to depend on another clause to have meaning. In a sentence, this type of clause may function as an adjective, an adverb or as a noun.

As an adjective clause, it describes, modifies or adds further information to another noun; and always begins whether with a relative pronoun (who, whom, whose, that, or which) or a relative adverb (when, where, or why).

In the sentence, "that they could outsmart the law" is a subordinate clause because it has a subject (they) and a verb (outsmart) and it can not express a complete thought. Furthermore, it is also an adjective clause because it begins with the relative pronoun "that" and it describes the noun "belief". What belief did they have? "that they could outsmart the law."
