The difference between an ing clause and a definite clause

Both adverbial clauses and adverbial clauses are adverbial components that are used to modify the main clause, but their difference lies in the grammatical structure and usage method.

An adverbial clause is an independent clause, usually composed of a participle, infinitive, or adjective phrase, which can be placed at the beginning of a sentence, in the middle of a sentence, or at the end of a sentence, and is used to express adverbials such as time, reason, condition, manner, purpose, etc. For example:

walking along the street, he saw an old friend.(Participle phrases for temporal adverbials).

to pass the exam, you need to study hard.(Indefinite lack of Chinese phrases as target adverbials).

excited by the news, she jumped up and down.(adjective phrase as cause adverbial).

An adverbial clause is a complete clause that is guided by a conjunction and contains a subject and predicate that is used to express adverbials such as time, reason, condition, manner, purpose, etc. The adverbial clause is usually placed after the main clause, for example:

after she finished her work, she went home.(temporal adverbial clause).

because he was sick, he didn't go to work.(reason adverbial clause).

if it rains tomorrow, we will stay at home.(conditional adverbial clause).

In general, both adverbial clauses and adverbial clauses are adverbial components used to modify the main clause, but adverbial clauses are usually more concise and flexible to use than adverbial clauses.

The definite clause is placed after the noun and is equivalent to an adjective which means '......of'

The object clause is placed after the verb or preposition, which is equivalent to a noun.

An object clause belongs to a noun clause.

There are four types of noun clauses: subject clauses, predicative clauses, object clauses, and silver imitation clauses.

In fact, most noun clauses use 'special interrogative sentences' as a noun, but the word order has changed.

All clauses must be [introductory words + other components of the declarative sentence order] and there is a special kind of object clause, which is placed after the adjective.

Look at the sentence components, whether there is a subject or not.
