Grammar: Adjective

Question:

Identify the Adjective Clause in the following sentence:

We visited my grandmother who had returned from a world tour last week.

Options:

we visited my grandmother

who had returned

from a world tour

last week

Correct Answer:

who had returned

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → who had returned

 Here's why:
  • An adjective clause describes a noun or pronoun.
  • In this sentence, the clause "who had returned from a world tour last week" describes the noun "grandmother".
  • It provides additional information about the grandmother's recent activity.
  • The remaining options ("we visited my grandmother", "from a world tour", "last week") are not clauses or don't directly describe the grandmother.
