Review of Noun Clause

A noun clause is a dependent clause that functions like a noun as a subject, a subject complement, or an object. A noun clause used as an object is the object of an introductory clause verb.

Types of Noun Clauses

There are three types of noun clauses:

  • That-clauses are made from statements and are introduced by the subordinator that.

           I know that you are right.

  • Wh-word clauses are formed from wh-questions and are introduced by wh-words such as who, whoever, what, whatever, where, wherever, when, which, how, how much, how many, etc.

          I don't know how he will get the money.

  • If/whether-clauses are formed from yes/no questions and are introduced by the subordinator whether or if. The phrase or not may be added.

          Do you know whether (or if) he will get the money?
