Anon —-When Shawn arrives at work —-is in bold. Thank you for helping me!
The grammatical element expressed by the bold words "When Dhawn arrives at work" in the sentence is a dependent clause.
To determine this, you can break down the sentence into the main clause and the dependent clause:
Main clause: "he hangs his jacket on his chair."
Dependent clause: "When Dhawn arrives at work"
The dependent clause "When Dhawn arrives at work" cannot stand alone as a complete sentence because it does not express a complete thought. It depends on the main clause to provide the context and complete meaning. In this case, it functions as an adverbial clause, providing additional information about the timing or condition of the action in the main clause. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Dependent clause.
