Question

Which of the following is a dependent clause?
A. he talks loudly
B. even though the sun had gone down
C. she walked outside
D. come to dinner

Answer 1

B. even though the sun had gone down

Answer 2

Answer: B. Even though the sun had gone down.

Why? A dependent clause cannot stand alone. So, you are trying to find which one of the options is lacking a part. A, C, and D are all independent clauses, so they can stand alone. B is lacking a subject (Him, her, me). Adding an independent clause will fix the subject issue.
