- ADJECTIVE CLAUSES
- -----------------
- clause: a group of words with a subject and a verb
- adjective: a word that modifies or describes a noun
- adjective clause: a clause that modifies or describes a noun

- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - noun clause
- Give this message to the next person who calls.
- adjective clause - ^^^^^^^^^
- (it gives more information about "person")
- Robert DeNiro, who is acting in a new movie, will be here.
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- (it gives more information about "Robert DeNiro")
- (this information does not identify the noun, because we already know his name)
- I like all of my students who come on time.
- = I like some of my students (I like only the few who come on time).
- "who come on time" is an IDENTIFYING adjective clause
- I like all of my students, who come on time.
- = I like all of my students (all of them come on time).
- "who come on time" is a NON-IDENTIFYING adjective clause
- identifying = defining = restrictive
- non-identifying = non-defining = non-restrictive
