Question

What are the types of the underlined clauses in the sentence?

If you are not discreet, we will use whatever you say against you.

• A. Conditional clause, Noun clause
• B. Relative clause, Adverb clause
• C. Adverb clause, Noun clause
• D. Conditional clause, Adverb clause

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Conditional clause, Noun clause

The clause ‘If you are not discreet’ is a conditional clause because it starts with the conjunction ‘If’.

The clause ‘whatever you say’ is a noun clause.

It answers the question ‘What would we use against you?’.
