Answer:
noun clause is a clause that plays the role of a noun. For example (noun clauses shaded):
I like what I see.
(Like all clauses, a noun clause has a subject and a verb. In this example, the subject of the clause is "I" and the verb is "see.")
I know that patience has its limits.
(In this example, the subject of the clause is "patience" and the verb is "has.")
Compare the two examples above to these:
I like innovation.
I know people.
The words in bold are all nouns. This proves that the shaded clauses in the first two examples are functioning as nouns.
