Is the underlined clause independent or subordinate? The tour guide led us to the spot where the settlers had lived in the past. A. independent B. subordinate

OpenStudy (susanna):

what's underlined?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The underlined is (where the settlers had lived in the past.)

OpenStudy (susanna):

Does it make sense on its own, or is it a fragment?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I cannot tell lol :/

OpenStudy (susanna):

If it makes sense on its own, it is an independent clause

OpenStudy (susanna):

Can you say (where the settlers had lived in the past) like a sentence?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no I think

OpenStudy (susanna):

You're right, so the clause is NOT independent.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you so much

OpenStudy (susanna):

no prob
