Question

Identify the subordinate clause in the following sentence:
I earn whatever I can.

• A. whatever I can
• B. I earn
• C. I can
• D. earn whatever

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

A clause is a part of a larger sentence containing a subject and a predicate of its own.
A Principal Clause is an independent clause which can exist even without a subordinate clause. A Subordinate Clause is called a dependent clause because it cannot exist without the help of the principal clause. It begins with a subordinating conjunction.
