Sorry, can't give direct answers. What do you think an adjective is?

anonymous · Answer

I'm thinking the adjective is the word umbrella

angiedoesschool2275 · Answer

I do not think so, a noun is a clause that plays the role of a noun, a adjective is something like who, what, where, when and how. Finally, a adverb modifies a noun like a name of something. So, what do you think it is now?

In "who bought the coat" the hint word is 'who' so, which clause refers to that?

The coat!!

angiedoesschool2275 · Answer

The question is asking you what clause that sentence is right?

anonymous · Answer

Yes

angiedoesschool2275 · Answer

It isn't asking you which word the clause is, it's asking you what clause it is and to use your clues you receive in the sentence. So, it is an adjective. Understand?
