SUBORDINATE CONJUNCTION



A subordinate clause is introduced by a subordinating conjunction (dass, ob, weil, wenn, usw.) or in the case of relative clauses, a relative pronoun (den, der, die, welche, usw.). The conjugated verb is placed at the end of a subordinate clause.

Examples in German:

I don't know when he arrives today.
Ich weiß nicht, wann er heute ankommt.

Als sie hinausging, bemerkte sie sofort die glühende Hitze.

Das ist die Dame, die wir gestern sahen.
