    Question

    Identify the clause of the highlighted part in the given sentence.
    The sun which shines all day goes to rest in the evening.

    A.

    Noun Clause

    B.

    Adverb Clause

    C.

    Adjective Clause

    D.

    Principal Clause

    Correct option is C


    The correct answer is (c) Adjective Clause.
    Detailed Explanation (English):
    • The highlighted clause “which shines all day” begins with which, a relative pronoun.
    • It gives extra information about the noun “sun” (Which sun? → the sun which shines all day).
    • A clause that describes a noun/pronoun and works like an adjective is called an Adjective Clause (also called a Relative Clause).
    Grammatical Rule Used (English):
    • Adjective Clause: a subordinate clause that modifies a noun/pronoun.
    • Introduced by relative pronouns like who, whom, whose, which, that.
    Grammatical Rule Used (Hindi):
    • जो उपवाक्य किसी संज्ञा/सर्वनाम की विशेषता बताता है, वह Adjective Clause (Relative Clause) कहलाता है।
    • “which” relative pronoun है और यह “sun” के बारे में जानकारी दे रहा है, इसलिए यह Adjective Clause है।
    Example:
    • The boy who won the race is my friend.
