Question

Halp please c:

Answer 1

Select the sentence that contains a noun clause.
George Washington, "the father of his country," was born in 1732. Washington became the first president of the United States of America in 1789. Before he became the first president, Washington was a general during the American Revolution. He fell ill and died in 1799, but we know that his legacy continues today.

Answer 2

@Vocaloid any chance you know how to find this?

Answer 3

so we are looking for a clause (think of a clause as a coordinating conjunction followed by an independent sentence) that acts as a noun

Answer 4

He fell ill and died in 1799, but we know that his legacy continues today.

"that his legacy continues today" is acting as a noun

He fell ill and died in 1799, but we know [noun]

Answer 5

"that" is a coordinating conjunction and "his legacy continues today" is an independent clause, making "that his legacy continues today" a noun clause

so it would be the last sentence

Answer 6

I hope that makes sense, this is pretty complex even for a native speaker

Answer 7

Thank you Vocaloid, I had thought that that was the answer but I was unsure. c:
