PLEEEAASSEEE I NEED HELP





That is the house "where I grew up."

The words in quotes make up an adjective clause. An adjective clause does

what an adjective does: it modifies a noun or pronoun. The clause above

modifies the noun "house". Adjective clauses often begin with that, which,

where, who, whom, or whose. The following sentence contains an adjective

clause. Type the first word followed by a space and last word of the

adjective clause.

There once was a place where you could get whatever you needed.

The adjective clause in the new sentence follows very much the same pattern as the adjective clause in the sample sentence.

The thing with a clause is, it must be complete. You can see where that clause begins, right? Are you having trouble seeing where it ends? 

There once was a place / where . . .

What follows is going to describe "place," so it's going to be adjectival. It begins with "where," so we know it will be a clause. (And not just a phrase.)

Clauses have their own subjects and predicates. So you have to look for a group of words that goes together and that has both a subject and a predicate. 

There once was a place / where you could get [subject and verb, but the verb is left hanging]

There once was a place / where you could get whatever [subject and verb and the start of the thing that gets the action of the verb] 

There once was a place / where you could get whatever you needed [subject and verb and the complete thing that gets the action of the verb, also know as a direct object]
