To use subordinate clauses effectively in your writing, try these simple tips:

1. Mix Up Your Clause Types: Use different kinds of subordinate clauses to make your writing more interesting. Here are some examples:

   • Noun clause: "Je suis sûr que tu viens." (I am sure that you are coming.)
   • Adjective clause: "La femme qui parle est ma sœur." (The woman who is speaking is my sister.)
   • Adverb clause: "Il est parti quand j'ai appelé." (He left when I called.)

2. Use Conjunctions Smartly: Learn how to use words like "que," "si," and "lorsque" to connect your ideas smoothly.

3. Watch Your Punctuation: Be careful with your punctuation. Use commas to make your sentences clearer, especially with extra information. For example: "Mon frère, qui vit à Paris, vient demain." (My brother, who lives in Paris, is coming tomorrow.)

Using these tips will help you improve your writing and express your thoughts more clearly!
