Question

(Spot the main and the subordinate clause in the following sentences/ state the kind.) I often wonder how you are getting on.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A clause is a part of a larger sentence containing a subject and a predicate of its own.

A Principal Clause is an independent clause which can exist even without a subordinate clause. A Subordinate Clause is called a dependent clause because it cannot exist without the help of the principal clause. It begins with a subordinating conjunction.

'how you are getting on' is the subordinate clause, beginning with the subordinating conjunction 'how'. It depends upon the principal clause for its existence.
