Adjective clauses modify nouns and can use relative pronouns like "that", "who", "which", or "whom" to replace the object of a sentence. Object adjective clauses are dependent clauses that replace the object of a sentence with a relative pronoun. Examples are provided to illustrate object adjective clauses.

    TY P ES OF CL A U S ES
    AMONG CLAUSES WE FIND TWO TYPES:
    INDEPENDENT AND DEPENDENT CLUSES.
    • Known also as main clauses they are complete sentences
    because they contain the main subject and verb of a
    INDEPENDENT sentence.

    CLAUSES
    Where does Sue live?
    • Dependent clauses are not complete sentences so they
    DEPENDENT don’t make sense by their own.

    • We saw a few classes ago SUBJECT adjective clauses
    where they replaced the subject of one sentence. E.g.

    OBJECT
    I wrote a poem. The poem was sad.
    ADJECTIVE I wrote a poem that was sad.
    CLAUSES
    In this clause the subject of the second sentence is “the
    poem” and it is replaced for “that”
    • Well, in OBJECT adjective clauses,we replace the object of one sentence
    with a relative pronoun (who, that, which or whom). E.g.
