To learn English properly we all need to focus on the grammatical rules. To speak and write in English properly students or anyone have the knowledge of two things and these are: 1) Grammar and 2) Vocabulary. To know or to learn a language it is very important to know the grammatical rules of the language. Because of without learning the grammatical rules one cannot speak or write properly though he or she knows much about vocabulary. That’s why we will discuss about the grammatical rules of English step by step. We “Life Solution” believe our post on English will be a great guide lines and the easy way to learn English to you and especially for the students. Today we will discuss the phrase, clause and sentence which are very important part of grammatical rules of English.
PHRASE, CLAUSE, AND SENTENCE
Phrase means a collection of words that may have nouns or verbs, but it does not have a subject doing a verb. There are some examples of phrases: smashing into a fence, leaving behind the dog, before the first test, on the table, broken into thousands of pieces, between ignorance and intelligence, because of her glittering smile. In these examples that we given above, you will find some nouns like as: fence, test, dog, thousands, ignorance, devastation, intelligence, and pieces. You will also have some verbal’s like as leaving, smashing. They are all phrases.
Clause means the collection of words that has a subject and that is actively doing a verb. There are some examples of clauses: 1) because she smiled at him, 2) when the rain stops; 3) I despise individuals of low character, 4) Obadiah Simpson is uglier than a rabid raccoon, 5) since she laughs at diffident men. In the examples that we given above, we will find either a noun or a pronoun that is a subject which is attached to a predicate verb in each case: since she laughs at diffident men, I despise individuals of low character, when the rain stops; Obadiah Simpson is uglier than a rabid raccoon, because she smiled at him.

If the clause could stand by itself, and form a complete sentence with punctuation, we call the clause an independent clause. The following are independent clauses: Obediah Simpson is uglier than a rabid raccoon, I despise individuals of low character. It could be easily turn independent clauses into complete sentences. For that we have to add appropriate punctuation marks. We might say "Obediah Simpson is uglier than a rabid raccoon!", Or we might write, "I despise individuals of low character." We call them independent because these types of clauses can stand independently by themselves, without any extra words attached, and be complete sentences.
Now we will discuss about the dependent clause. It is another important part of grammar. Dependent clauses have a subject doing a verb, but they have a subordinate conjunction placed in front of the clause. That subordinate conjunction means that the clause can't stand independently by itself. It can’t become a complete sentence without a subordinate conjunction. Instead, the dependent clause is dependent on another clause; it can't make a complete sentence by itself, even though it has a subject which is doing a verb. Common dominating conjunctions or dependent words: since, because, after, who, whom, what, whose, when, before, until, whatever, that, if, while, whether...or not, as, although, unless, even though, as if, which, so that. Here are some examples of dependent clauses: example1- because she smiled at him. Example, 2- when the saints go marching in, example3- since she laughs at diffident men.
