Question

What are the independent/main clauses and the dependent/subordinate clauses of this sentence?

“I would council and exhort you to take it as well and as patiently as you can, seeing that we all be mortal and born to die.”

Answer 1

dependent clause, independent clause. Example: Since I was tired, I decided to go to bed. When the dependent (subordinate) clause follows the independent clause, don't use a comma before or after the subordinating conjunction (connecting word).
