Question

Choose whether the following statement is True or False:
The underlined words in the following sentence form an adjective clause:

The man behind the counter looks very handsome.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

An adjective clause is a group of words that contain a subject and a verb, and it functions as an adjective that modifies a noun or a pronoun. Adjective clauses usually begin with relative pronouns such as who, whom, whose or a relative adverb like when, where and so on.
The underlined words form a phrase as it has no subject or verb. Hence it isn't an adjective clause and the statement is false. Hence, option B is correct and A is incorrect.
