Billy enjoyed the pizza that his brother made for him.

In one to two sentences, identify if the blue words (as in "that his brother made for him") are an independent clause, dependent clause, or phrase. Then explain how you come to your answer.

The words "that his brother made for him" are a dependent clause because it cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. It is providing additional information about the pizza, but it needs the independent clause "Billy enjoyed" to make sense as a complete thought.
