Hi mrs Moore i have a question about one of the activities. On one question it had "turn off the computer" and I was wandering if it was phrase or a clause? Thanks Peter
Hi Peter!
That is a clause because it is a particular type of sentence in which the subject is understood to be "you"--anything that sounds like a command -- Get your books or Go to sleep!--fall under this type of sentence-(imperative) Good question, Peter! I won't have one of these on the test.
