1) You bought a dimond to replacemine.
- "You bought a diamond" is main clause and "to replacemine " is subordinate clause.
2) One day they saw a ship that was not anchored.
- "One day they saw a ship" is the main clause and "that was not anchored " is the subordinate clause.

In the first sentence "You bought a dimond to replacemine" you is the subject here so it is main clause and the "to" indicates the starting of the subordinate clause.
In the second one "one day they saw a ship that was not anchored." they is the subject so it is main clause and the "that" indicates the starting of the subordinate clause
