Question

Add clause. I saw an old man ............

Answer 1

I saw an old man sitting in the shade of a tree.

• Clause is a group of words consisting of a single subject with a finite verb.
• There are generally two kinds of clauses - dependent clause and independent clause.
• In the given blank, we can insert either of the two types of clauses.
• 'Sitting in the shade of a tree' is an example of a dependent or subordinate clause because it does not reveal a complete idea by itself.
