Kalimat dengan klausa
keterangan mempunyai dua pola. Pelajari klausa dan kata penghubung pada kalimat
berikut:
I will sign the check before you
leave.
Before
you leave, I will sign the
check.
Terdapat
dua klausa pada masing-masing contoh kalimat diatas: you leave dan I
will sign the check, dan klausa you
leave adalah keterangan waktu karena memiliki kata penghubung before.
Pada contoh pertama, kata penghubung before berada di tengah kalimat dan
tidak menggunakan tanda koma (,). Pada contoh kedua, kata penghubung before berada
di awal kalimat. Ketika kata penghubung berada di awal kalimat, tanda koma (,)
diperlukan pada tengah kalimat.
Example
____ was late, I missed the appointment.
(A) I
(B) Because
(C) The train
(D)
Since he
Dalam
contoh kalimat diatas terdapat verb (was) yang memerlukan subjek. Terdapat juga
klausa lain I missed the appointment. Jawaban (A) dan (C) memiliki subjek yang cocok dengan was, tetapi tidak
ada kata penghubung yang diperlukan untuk menghubungkan kedua klausa. Jawaban
(B) juga tidak tepat karena tidak memiliki subjek untuk verbnya (was). Jawaban
(D) adalah jawaban yang paling tepat karena memiliki subjek (he) yang cocok
dengan verb (was) dan memiliki kata penghubung (since) untuk menghubungkan
kedua klausa.
