RELATIVE CLAUSES Firts, we need to give a de៯�nition of clause. A clause is a statement or a question that generally consists of a subject and a verb phrase and constitutes a complete thought. Sentences can consist of a single clause, but they often include two: a main, or independent, clause and a subordinate, or dependent, clause. A main clause can form a complete sentence. (The preceding statement is both a clause and a sentence) A subordinate clause, by contrast, depends on a main clause to provide the primary proposition of the sentence, which is why it’s also called a dependent clause. Now, relative clauses are clauses starting with the relative pronouns who*, that, which, whose, where, when. They are most often used to de៯�ne or identify the noun that precedes them. Here are some examples: Do you know the girl who started in grade 7 last week? Can I have the pencil that I gave you this morning? A notebook is a computer which can be carried around. I won't eat in a restaurant whose cooks smoke. I want to live in a place where there is lots to do.  Yesterday was a day when everything went wrong! Take a look to the following chart.

In order to clarify this topic better, please check the following presentation:

PHRASAL VERBS A phrasal verb is a combination of a verb and preposition, a verb and an adverb, or a verb with both an adverb and a preposition. A phrasal verb has a meaning which is di៛�erent from the original verb. That's what makes them fun, but confusing. You may need to try to guess the meaning from the context, or, failing that, look it up in a dictionary. Phrasal verbs are usually used informally in everyday speech as opposed to the more formal Latinate verbs, such as “to get together” rather than “to congregate”, “to put o៛�” rather than “to postpone”, or “to get out” rather than “to exit”. They should be avoided in academic writing. For more information about what is a phrasal verb, click HERE. There are many di៛�erent phrasal verbs. In this lesson, we are going to study phrasal verbs with "get": PHRASAL VERB
