00:00 | in this video . I'm going to talk about clauses | |
00:04 | First , I will give you an example Sentence . | |
00:08 | This sentence has two clauses . I'll eat dinner tonight | |
00:15 | when I finish my homework . Now this sentence has | |
00:19 | two clauses . The first clauses . I'll eat dinner | |
00:23 | tonight . The second clause is when I finish my | |
00:29 | homework . So what is a clause ? Well , | |
00:33 | a clause in English always has a subject and a | |
00:38 | verb . A subject and a verb . Okay , | |
00:42 | now let's look at the same sentence and let's find | |
00:46 | the subject and the verb . Okay , I I | |
00:50 | is the subject . In the first clause , the | |
00:54 | verb will eat so I'll eat subject verb . I'll | |
01:01 | eat dinner tonight . That's my first clause . The | |
01:05 | second clause when I Okay , we have another subject | |
01:11 | . When I finish , there's the verb . So | |
01:15 | you see , we have a subject verb and then | |
01:18 | subject verb . This is a clause . A clause | |
01:22 | has a subject and a verb . And in English | |
01:25 | clauses are very important . We always need a clause | |
01:31 | in a sentence . We always need a subject and | |
01:35 | we always need a verb . Now let's talk about | |
01:39 | what kind of clause is in the sentence I gave | |
01:44 | you . Well , I'll eat dinner tonight . This | |
01:49 | is the main clause of my sentence . This is | |
01:52 | the main information . And then when I finish my | |
01:57 | homework , this is the time information . So we | |
02:01 | call this the time clause . So we have a | |
02:05 | main clause and then we have a time clause in | |
02:09 | this sentence . Now , here are some rules that | |
02:13 | you need to know . When we're talking about the | |
02:17 | future . It is okay to say will or be | |
02:21 | going to in the main clause of the sentence . | |
02:25 | So in the example sentence I gave you I will | |
02:29 | eat dinner tonight . Will is okay . But in | |
02:34 | a time clause a time clause time information . In | |
02:39 | this sentence , we're giving time information about the future | |
02:45 | . But in English in a time clause we cannot | |
02:50 | use will or be going to we have to use | |
02:54 | present simple . I know that's crazy because we're talking | |
02:59 | about the future . But the time clause must use | |
03:03 | the present Simple . So the time clause and the | |
03:08 | sentence I gave you when I finish my homework this | |
03:13 | is present simple . So in this video , I've | |
03:17 | explained clauses , clauses , air Very important in English | |
03:22 | . Ah , Clause always has a subject and a | |
03:26 | verb and also main clauses can can have the word | |
03:31 | will or have the words be going Thio But the | |
03:35 | time clause must be in the present . Simple . | |
