THE FORMS OF NOUN

CLAUSES
The following sections discuss the two grammatical forms :
1. Finite
The first grammatical form of noun clauses in English grammar
is the finite noun clause. Finite noun clauses contain
conjugated verb phrases. Conjugated verb phrases in English
show person (first, second, third), number (singular, plural),
and tense (present, past). The following italicized clauses are
examples of finite noun clauses:
My favorite writer is whoever create this novel Rainbow and Ocean.
Whatever you decide is fine with me.

2. Nonfinite
Inlinguistics, anon-finite clauseis adependent clausewhose verb
isnon-finite;for example, many languages can form non-finite
clauses
frominfinitives,participlesandgerunds.
Like
any
dependent (subordinate) clause, a non-finite clause serves a
grammatical role commonly that of anoun,adjective, oradverb
in a greater clause that contains it.
Example:
The kids playing on their computers, we were able to enjoy
some time
alone. (a participal clause with a subject)

(a participial clause using a past participle)
Playing on computersis fun. (agerundclause)

TYPES OF ADJECTIVE
CLAUSE
1. Restictive Adjective Clause

Also called relative clauses because they relate or connect the clausal
information to the preceding noun. Restrictive (also called defining)
adjective clauses define, specify (limit), or identify a noun. They are
essential to the meaning of the sentence; therefore, no commas are used.
Who, which, and that function as subjects of adjective clauses.
Who and that relate to people; which and that relate to things or places
2. Non-restrictive
Non-restrictive (also called non-defining) adjective clauses give extra
information about an already defined (named) noun. Commas are used to
set off this extra information.
