Question

make 10 sentences of noun clause

Answer 1

Example 1

If you’ve watched the Hunger Games: Catching Fire, you have probably heard the song Who We Are, by Imagine Dragons. The chorus contains a noun clause. Can you find it?

It’s who we are
Doesn’t matter if we’ve gone too far
Doesn’t matter if it’s all okay
Doesn’t matter if it’s not our day

If you said, “who we are” then you are off to a good start! Like all clauses, it has a subject (we) and a verb (are). It is also doing what a noun can do – identify something. In this case, the clause is identifying what “it” is. When a noun or noun clause identifies another noun more precisely, we call this a complement (see section 4.)

Example 2

Here is a sentence with two more noun clauses:

I do not know what the future holds, but I know who holds the future. – Oprah Winfrey

The two noun clauses are: “what the future holds” and “who holds the future”. In both cases, the clauses are doing what nouns can do – acting as direct objects. (see section 4.)



Example 3

Here’s another example from the movie, Return of the Jedi. The great teacher, Yoda tells Luke:

You must unlearn what you have learned.

So, what must Luke unlearn? “…what you have learned.” This clause is a noun clause. It is a direct object in this sentence.
