Adverb Clause: part of a sentence with a subject and verb, which modifies the main verb or (less commonly) an adjective or other adverb

After I ate my dinner, I washed the dishes. =
I washed the dishes after I ate my dinner.
                    --------------------- = adverb clause of TIME
						(modifies "washed")

I am taller than my sister is.
            ----------------- = adverb clause modifying "taller" (adj)

I usually drive faster than you do.
                       ----------- = adverb clause modifying "faster" (adv)

"only" + adverb clause works like a negative adverb when it starts a sentence:
Only if she wins the gold medal will she get the advertising contract.
Only after you complete six weeks can you move to a higher level.
Only because the world cup is over does he go home after school.

Though it was raining, we ate outside. (unexpected result)
While some people are rich, others are poor. (basic contrast - no surprise)

I'll watch the fireworks even if it rains.
Even if it rains, I'll watch the fireworks.

*Even if it rains.
*After you complete six weeks.
*When I get home.
Without a main clause, these are all (incorrect) sentence fragments.
