clauses: independent and dependent. Independent clauses express a complete thought and can exist independently from any other clause. Dependent clauses on the other hand cannot exist without the help of another clause. If we leave dependent clauses hanging in our writing, not only is our reader confused, but we are writing sentence fragments, or pieces of sentences that are incomplete.
Think about it this way–dependent clauses are like wireless headphones. They are completely pointless unless you connect them to a source of power that can stream the music into your headphones. Sure, you can play music back on your phone or laptop, but the headphones are still useless without that essential bluetooth connection.

There are many ways to both identify dependent clauses and connect them to independent clauses. While this post will focus on dependent clauses, check out this post on the Albert blog
