 CHAPTER I
PRELIMINARY
A. Background
A clause is a group of words that contain a subject and a verb. Clauses can take
the place of different parts of speech. A noun clause is a dependent clause and cannot
stand alone as a sentence. It must be connected to an independent clause, a main clause.
A noun clause has its own subject and verb. It can begin with a question word. It can
begin with if or whether. And it can begin with that.

B. Aim
Our goal is to make this paper so that we will know and deepen our knowledge
about tenses, especially "Part Of Sentence and Noun Clauses" to master English and
apply the Part Of Sentence and Noun Clauses.

DISCUSSION

A. Definition
A clause is a group of words that contain a subject and a verb. Clauses can take
the place of different parts of speech. A noun clause is a dependent clause and cannot
stand alone as a sentence. It must be connected to an independent clause, a main clause.
A noun clause has its own subject and verb. It can begin with a question word. It can
begin with if or whether. And it can begin with that.

B. Type Part of sentence and noun clauses

There are three basic types of noun clauses. These types are :
1. noun clauses that start with a question word
2. noun clauses with who, what, whose + be
3. noun clauses that start with whether or if,
4. noun clauses that start with that.

1. Noun clauses with question words:

Noun clauses that start with a question are usually used to answer a question. The
following question words can be used to introduce a noun clause: when, where, why,
how, who, whom, what, which, whose. So, to change a wh-question to a noun clause,
use the wh-word:

I don’t know + Where is George? =I don’t know where George is.

Example:

Answer this question using 'I don't know...'

2. Noun clauses with who, what, whose + be

 A noun or pronoun that follows main verb 'be' in a question comes in front of 'be' in a
noun clause.
 Example:
--> Who is that boy? I don't know who that boy is.

--> Whose pen is this? I don't know whose pen this is.

3. Noun Clauses that Start with Conjunction “Whether” or “If”

Noun clauses that start with whether or if are used to answer yes/no type
questions. Whether and if are usually interchangeable. The following examples should
better explain this.

George wonders + Does Fred know how to cook? = George wonders if Fred knows how to
cook.

4. Noun Clauses that Start with “That” or “the fact that”.

Noun clauses that start with that are used to answer questions in which person who
is answering is thinking, giving an opinion, or using a mental activity verb or to change a
statement to a noun clause. In here, the meaning of “that” is “bahwa”, while “the fact
that” is fakta bahwa. but, “that” in the adjective clauses means “yang”.
I know + Billy made a mistake = I know that Billy made a mistake.

C. Example Part of Sentence and Noun Clauses

Here are some examples Part Of Sentence and Noun Clauses

Noun clauses perform the same functions in sentences that nouns do:

1) Noun clause used as an object

He said something  He said that he was sick.
S V O S V O
Billy’s friends didn’t know that he couldn’t swim.
S V O
Other example :
 We didn’t know that Billy would jump.

We didn’t know Billy would jump.

Can you tell me if Fred is here?

I don’t know where he is.

George eats whatever is on his plate.

2) Noun clause used as a subject

Something is your business  Whatever you do is your business.
S V S V
Someone is still in the cafeteria  Whoever ate my lunch is still in the cafeteria.
S V S V
What Billy did shocked his friends
S V
Other example :

That George learned how to swim is a miracle.

Whether Fred can get a better job is not certain.

What Mary said confused her parents.

However you learn to spell is OK with me

3) A noun clause can be a subject complement:

example :

Billy’s mistake was that he refused to take lessons.

The truth is that Billy was not very smart.

The truth is Billy was not very smart.

The question is whether other boys will try the same thing.

The winner will be whoever runs fastest.

4) A noun clause can be an object of a preposition:
example :

Mary is not responsible for what Billy did.

Billy didn’t listen to what Mary said.

He wants to learn about whatever is interesting.

5) A noun clause (but not a noun) can be an adjective complement:

example :

Everybody is sad that Billy drowned.

He is happy that he is learning English.

We are all afraid that the final exam will be difficult.

 CHAPTER III
CLOSE
A. Conclusion
A clause is a group of words that contain a subject and a verb. Clauses can take
the place of different parts of speech. A noun clause is a dependent clause and cannot
stand alone as a sentence.

B. Suggestion

From the assessment that has been done is expected we would more understand
about tenses in English in this case "Part of Sentence and Noun Clauses". because in
English there are rules in the learning process, especially pronunciation.

The readers and also the authors want to involve themselves in the application of
English in everyday life because English is an international language.
