a: Main clause ~
b: a wife who can cook independently
What: "While teaching the difference between Main Clause and the Subordinate Clause, I
usually say that main clause can work independently and subordinate
clause can't
. At that
tim
e in my
classes I make a comparison by
saying that the main clause is like a wife who
can cook independently without her husband's presence. That is, she need not depend on
him. But subordinate clause is like husband who has to depend on his wife for food."
