Answers
Answer:
Hanna got off the bus is Main clause,
when it came to a complete stop is Subordinate clause.
Adverb clause of time
Main clause: Hanna got off the bus
Subordinate clause: when it came to a complete stop.
Explanation:
(Adverb clause of TIME)
Joining two phrases which alone are meaningless is what Clause does. The clause helps to join two such sentences. Here, the subordinate clause implies a dependent clause as it is dependent on the first phrase that is, the Main clause. And the main clause is incomplete without a subordinate clause. This is how the relationship between both the main and subordinate clause is.
Here in the example, ‘Hamna got off the bus’ – implies the Main clause, with without the second phase, it is incomplete.
And the second phrase is, ‘when it came to a complete stop’ is a subordinate clause which is meaningless without the main clause.
Now, comes the type of clause. Types of clauses imply the time, place, situation, etc.
Here, ‘Hamna got off the bus when it came to a complete stop’, is an Adverb Clause of TIME.
