Question

In each of the following sentences replace its adverb clause by an adverb adverb phrase.
(1) when he entered the room he saw the vase broken.
(2) we have come so that we may help you.
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

An adverbial clause is a group of words which contains a subject and verb and acts as an adverb. It may sometimes stand on its own. For example: When she sees the moon.

An adverbial phrase is a group of words which lacks a subject-verb component and cannot stand alone. It also acts as an adverb. For example: like a maniac

We may change an adverbial phrase to an adverbial clause.

For example:

"Having slept late, I was very tired."

Here, 'Having slept late' is an adverbial phrase.

We may change it to an adverbial clause by including the subject in it:

"As I had slept late, I was very tired."
