the noun clause

the noun clause

object of the preposition, or
a predicate nominative. This type of clause often starts with any one of these
words—how, that, what, whatever, when, where, whether, which, whichever, who,
whoever, whom, whomever, whose, and why.

The noun clause is underlined in each of these sentences. Its function within
the sentence follows in the parentheses.

(direct object)
Will these older folks recall how they were part of a terrific

(direct object)
