Takeaways

• 😀 The video focuses on understanding subordinate and coordinate clauses in Portuguese grammar.
• 😀 Subordinate clauses depend on a main clause, while coordinate clauses are independent.
• 😀 A key feature of subordinate clauses is that they are dependent on the main clause for meaning.
• 😀 Subordinate noun clauses often appear with a conjunction, such as 'que' or 'de que', integrating the clauses.
• 😀 The video explains that subordinate noun clauses can serve as the subject of a sentence, referred to as 'subjective subordinate clauses'.
• 😀 To identify a subjective subordinate clause, replace it with the word 'isso' (meaning 'this'), which tests the clause's role as the subject.
• 😀 Subordinate noun clauses can also function as the object of a verb, categorized into direct and indirect objects.
• 😀 Direct object subordinate clauses do not require prepositions, while indirect object subordinate clauses require prepositions.
• 😀 A practical tip for identifying direct versus indirect subordinate clauses involves analyzing the verb for the presence of prepositions like 'de'.
• 😀 The speaker encourages viewers to review alternative answers in grammar exercises carefully to spot subordinate clauses, using the 'isso' test for clarity.

Q & A

What is the difference between a subordinate clause and a coordinate clause?

A subordinate clause is dependent on a main clause, meaning it cannot stand alone and relies on the main clause for its meaning. In contrast, a coordinate clause is independent and can stand on its own as a complete sentence.

What is the significance of the word 'que' in subordinate clauses?

The word 'que' often introduces subordinate clauses and plays a key role in connecting the subordinate clause to the main clause. It helps in forming various types of subordinate clauses, such as substantive, adjective, or adverbial clauses.

What is an example of a subjective subordinate clause?

An example of a subjective subordinate clause is: 'It is clear that you have studied well.' The subordinate clause 'that you have studied well' functions as the subject of the sentence.

How can you identify an objective direct subordinate clause?

An objective direct subordinate clause can be identified by the absence of prepositions after the verb. For example, in 'I know that you studied,' the clause 'that you studied' is direct and does not require a preposition.

What is an objective indirect subordinate clause, and how do you identify it?

An objective indirect subordinate clause is introduced by a verb that requires a preposition, such as 'necessitate,' 'think of,' or 'believe in.' For example, 'The parents need that you study' becomes 'The parents need that you study with joy,' where 'necessitate' requires the preposition 'de.'

Why is the phrase 'objective indirect' described as more complex?

The phrase 'objective indirect' is considered more complex because it involves the use of a preposition after the verb. This requires more attention to sentence structure to ensure proper understanding.

How does the speaker suggest recognizing whether a clause is objective direct or indirect?

The speaker recommends analyzing the verb in the sentence to determine if a preposition is required. If a preposition follows the verb, the clause is objective indirect. If no preposition is present, the clause is objective direct.

What mnemonic device does the speaker provide to help identify a subjective subordinate clause?

The speaker suggests substituting the entire subordinate clause with the word 'isso' (this). If the sentence still makes sense, it indicates that the clause functions as a subject, thus being a subjective subordinate clause.

What is the role of conjunctions in subordinate clauses?

Conjunctions, like 'que' or 'como,' are used to link subordinate clauses to the main clause. In the case of a substantive subordinate clause, the conjunction plays a critical role in integrating the two parts of the sentence.

How should students prepare for questions involving subordinate clauses in exams?

Students should first familiarize themselves with the types of subordinate clauses and their characteristics. They should focus on identifying verbs, looking for prepositions, and practicing substitution methods, such as replacing the subordinate clause with 'isso' for subjective clauses.
