Adverb clause- When the king arrived

Explanation:

  • A clause is a group of words that contain a subject and a verb.
  • If the subject is specific the clause can convey a meaning independently just as in a sentence. It is then called a main clause.
  • When the subject is not specific but is related to another clause it is called a subordinate clause.
  • Subordinate clauses are of various types depending on the part of speech they modify.
  • These clauses may be Noun clauses, Adjective clauses and Adverb clauses.
  • In the given sentence, 'when the king arrived the hermit was digging the ground.' the main verb here is was digging and the main clause is the hermit was digging the ground. The subordinate clause is when the king arrived.
