Section One: Structure ~ Clauses using “Before” and “After” ~ Discuss
Form: Clauses are groups of words with a subject and verb.
Independent clauses are sentences: I have coffee.
Dependent clauses are not sentences: after I go shopping
They can be joined together in two ways:
1) I have coffee after I go shopping. (no comma) 2) After I go shopping, I have coffee. (comma)
You can make questions as well, in the same two ways:
1) Do you have coffee before you go shopping? (no comma) 2) Before you go shopping, do you have coffee? (comma)
