Teaching Adverbial and Adjective Clauses When teaching adverbial and adjective clauses to students, it is important to demonstrate how these types of clauses differ. While they are both dependent clauses that cannot stand on their own and thus require another independent clause to create a grammatical sentence, adverbial clauses and adjective clauses perform two distinct functions in sentences. Adverbial Clauses Adverbial clauses are dependent clauses that modify verbs and verb phrases. The hostess wouldn't seat us because the restaurant was closed . The clause because the restaurant was closed answers questions about why the hostess wouldn't seat us. The seeds will take root wherever there is enough light . In this example, wherever there is enough light is an adverbial clause because it specifies where the seeds will take root. Sean will come to your party if you promise to let his band play . The adverbial clause if you promise to let my band play clarifies the conditions under which Sean will come to the party. Adjective Clauses

Clavis Sinica: Chinese Vocabulary Extractor Tool This Clavis Sinica applet automatically creates a vocabulary list or vocabulary review sheet from any digitized Chinese text. You can specify the type of vocabulary to be included (character, compounds, or both) and your skill level (beginner, intermediate, or advanced). The higher your skill level, the fewer high-frequency words will be included on your list. With the Vocabulary Review Sheet option, you can print out a list of vocabulary words including character, pinyin, and English definitions for study and review. To use the applet, simply paste simplified Chinese text into the text window (or select a simplified Chinese text file on your computer), choose an output type, vocabulary type, and skill level, and press Display. If the applet does not appear in the space above, or if the applet appears but nothing happens when you paste in text and press Display, your browser most likely not have the proper version of Java Plug-in installed.

Chinese exclamative particles The Chinese language involves a number of spoken exclamative words and written onomatopoeia which are used in everyday speech and informal writing. Such "exclamations" have their own Chinese character, but are rarely used in formal written documents. Rather, they are found in movie subtitles, music lyrics, informal literature and on internet forums. Many exclamatives contain the 口 mouth radical. Use of exclamative particles[edit] Exclamative particles are used as a method of recording aspects of human speech which may not be based entirely on meaning and definition. Use of exclamative particles is highly informal, and it is advised that they not be used in formal documents or academic papers, unless it is specifically required to do so (such as the case of narrative telling). While such exclamations are used in subtitles and descriptions of speech, usage is also popular in social circumstances, such as in text messaging, IM and blogs, where the formality of text is not an issue.
