In the sentence embroidered is a clause.
- A clause is a set of words typically consisting of a verb. They are either dependent or independent.
- A clause may form part of a sentence, or it may in itself be a full sentence. Thus, it refers to as the building block of a sentence.
- For example - Mary graduated last year. Here the clause is graduated.
- Thus, embroidered is a joining word, signifying that Mary had embroidered the handkerchief.
