Tuesday 9th December

 

Subordinate clauses begin with subordinating conjunctions:

when     if         because         although         while          since           until         before         after

 

The subordinate clause can come at the beginning of a sentence. When it does, a comma is needed to separate the clauses.

 

Add a subordinate clause to each of these main clauses. It can be the first clause or the second. Remember to punctuate the sentences correctly.
