Answer:
Clauses and Phrases
To understand punctuation, it is helpful to understand the difference between a phrase and a clause.
I. A phrase is a collection of words that may have nouns or verbals, but it does not have a subject doing a verb. The following are examples of phrases:
leaving behind the dog
smashing into a fence
before the first test
after the devastation
between ignorance and intelligence
broken into thousands of pieces
because of her glittering smile
In these examples above, you will find nouns (dog, fence, test, devastation, ignorance, intelligence, thousands, pieces). You also have some verbals (leaving, smashing), but in no case is the noun functioning as a subject doing a predicate verb. They are all phrases.
II. A clause is a collection of words that has a subject that is actively doing a verb. The following are examples of clauses:
since she laughs at diffident men
I despise individuals of low character
when the saints go marching in
Obediah Simpson is uglier than a rabid raccoon
because she smiled at him.
In the examples above, we find either a noun or a pronoun that is a subject (bold-print and red) attached to a predicate verb (underlined and purple) in each case:
since she laughs at diffident men
I despise individuals of low character
when the saints go marching in
Obediah Simpson is uglier than a rabid raccoon
because she smiled at him
Answer:
The given sentence in the complex form is:
A person who is intelligent is praised by all.
* Complex sentences have one independent clause but one or more dependent clauses.
* An adjective clause is also a dependent clause and begins with words like 'which', 'whom', 'who', etc.
* In this case 'who is intelligent' is referred to as the adjective clause that provides information about a noun( person) or modifies it in the sentence.
