Question

Identify the clause of the underlined part in the given sentence.

All that glitters is not gold.

A.

Noun Clause

B.

Adjective Clause

C.

Adverb Clause

D.

Principal Clause

Correct option is B

The underlined part “that glitters” is an Adjective Clause.

  • A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a verb.
  • Adjective Clause:
    An adjective clause is a dependent (subordinate) clause that modifies a noun or pronoun, telling us which one or what kind.
  • In the sentence, "that glitters" describes or modifies the noun "all" (referring to things), telling us which things are being talked about — those that glitter.
  • It answers the question "Which all?" — those that glitter.

Thus, "that glitters" functions exactly like an adjective does, modifying a noun, and therefore, it is an Adjective Clause.
