Pengertian Adjective Clause
Adjective clause atau
relative clause adalah dependent clause yang berfungsi sebagai adjective dan menjelaskan
tentang noun
atau pronoun
pada main clause
dari suatu complex sentence (kalimat yang terdiri dari independent clause dan satu atau lebih dependent clause).
Posisi adjective clause selalu mengikuti noun atau pronoun yang
diterangkannya. Di dalam kalimat, noun atau pronoun itu berfungsi
sebagai subject atau object. Adjective clause dimulai
dengan suatu kata yang disebut relative pronoun (who, whom, that, which, whose, etc) yang
berfungsi menjembatani hubungan dengan noun atau pronoun yang
diterangkannya.

Punctuation (Tanda Baca) pada
Adjective Clause
Saat menerangkan subject, posisi adjective
clause akan berada di tengah kalimat. Klausa tersebut dapat diapit
koma ataupun tidak, tergantung pada penting atau tidaknya informasi tambahan
yang dibawanya. Informasi tersebut dinilai essential (penting)
atau restrictive jika akan mengubah makna kalimat jika dihilangkan. Pada
situasi tersebut, koma tidak digunakan. Klausa yang membawa informasi essential
tersebut dinamakan defining clause. Sebaliknya, jika informasi non-essential
(tidak penting) atau non-restrictive karena dapat dihilangkan tanpa
merubah makna kalimat, maka koma digunakan. Klausa yang membawa informasi non-essential
tersebut dinamakan non-defining clause.
Contoh Complex Sentence:
·
Essential: People who chew well
may have healthy digestion.
·
Non-essential: Yulia, who works
out three times a week, has a positive body image.
