Rajasthan Board RBSE Class 10 English Grammar Clauses

Clauses ( उपवाक्य )

A clause is a group of words having a subject and a verb of its own, but it forms part of a sentence. A clause has no independent existence.
उपवाक्य (clause) ऐसे शब्दों का समूह होता है जो किसी पूर्ण वाक्य का अंश होता है और जिसका अपना अलग subject तथा predicate होता है। इसका कोई स्वंतत्र अस्तित्व नहीं होता है। जैसे,
(i) The fact is that India was a prosperous country.
(ii) He has a ring which is made of gold.
(iii) He came when the sun set.

• इस वाक्य में that India was a prosperous country एक Clause है। यहाँ यह complement की तरह प्रयोग किया गया है। क्योंकि यह एक Noun का कार्य करता है, इसलिए यह Noun Clause है।
• इस वाक्य में which is made of gold ,एक clause है। इससे अंगूठी की जानकारी प्राप्त होती है। अत: यह Adjective Clause है।
• इस वाक्य में when the sun set एक Clause है। इसका अपना Subject – the sun एवं predicate – set है। लेकिन वाक्य में यहाँ Adverb का कार्य करता है। अत: यह Adverb Clause है।

इस प्रकार clause तीन प्रकार के होते हैं-
(a) Noun clause,
(b) Adjective clause,
(c) Adverb clause.

किसी complex sentence में एक Principal Clause तथा एक या एक से अधिक Subordinate Clause होते हैं। इसके साथ ही Principal Clause में Complex Sentence किसी Main Verb (मुख्य क्रिया) और Main Subject की तरह कार्य करते हैं। मुख्य रूप से किसी Complex Sentence में Subordinate Clause/ Clauses, Principal Clause पर आश्रित होकर पूरे वाक्य (Sentence) में किसी Noun, Adjective या Adverb की तरह कार्य करते हैं।
इस प्रकार Subordinate Clause को निम्न प्रकार से भी विभाजित किया जा सकता है:

1. Noun clause
2. Adjective clause
3. Adverb clause

1. Noun Clause

हम जान चुके हैं कि Noun Clause वाक्य में Noun का कार्य करता है अर्थात वाक्य में Noun Clause का प्रयोग Noun के स्थान पर किया जाता है।
Noun Clause निम्नलिखित Connectives के साथ प्रारंभ होते हैं।

• Pronouns: What, which, who, whom, whose.
• Adverbs: When, where, why, how.
• Conjunctions: If, that, whether.

जैसे,

1. You can see what we have done.
   I don’t know which book he has bought.
   Can you tell me who had done it?

4. Relative Clause
(संबंधसूचक उपदाक्य)

वाक्यों में Relative Clause किसी Adjective की तरह कार्य करता है। यही कारण है कि इसे Adjective Clause भी कहा जाता है। अर्थात वाक्य में यह किसी Noun या Pronoun को qualify करता है- यह अपनी Antecedent Noun के संबंध में कुछ विशेष जानकारी प्रकट करता है।
जैसे

• The boy who came into the house was my friend.
• The house which our neighbor bought is made of stone.
• The book that I bought yesterday is very interesting.
• The girl whom you helped is my sister.

उपरयुक्त वाक्यों में — who came into the house, which our neighbor bought, that I bought yesterday और whom your helped — Relative Clauses , हैं, जो अपने Antecedent Nouns जैसे, the boy, the house, the book, the girl आदि की विशिष्ट जानकारी देते हैं। इन दोनों वाक्यों को Relative Pronouns – who, which, that, whom आदि की सहायता से जोड़ा गया है। अतः ये शब्दो Relative Pronoun के उदाहरण हैं।

Kinds of Relative Clauses (Relative Clauses के प्रकार ): Relative Clauses दो प्रकार के होते हैं; जैसे

1. Defining Relative Clause: इस clause को Restrictive Defining Relative Clause भी कहा जाता है। यह अपने Antecedent Noun की विशेषता प्रकट करता है, जिससे संज्ञा की पहचान पूर्ण हो जाती है। Defining Relative Clause के साथ Comma (,) का प्रयोग नहीं किया जाता है।
The teacher who teacher us English is a very good man.
इस वाक्य का अर्थ है- जो शिक्षक हमें अंग्रेजी पढाते हैं, वे एक अच्छे आदमी हैं। यहाँ एक विशिष्ट शिक्षक की बात की जा रही है। अतः who teaches us English. इस Relative Clause के द्वारा शिक्षक के अर्थ को सीमित कर दिया गया है।

2. Non-defining Relative Clause: इस Relative Clause को Non-Restrictive Relative Clause भी कहा जाता है। यह Antecedent Noun के संबंध में Additional Information (अतिरिक्त जानकारी) प्रदान करता है। इस Clause के साथ Comma (,) का प्रयोग अनिवार्य है। जैसे- the teacher, who teaches us English is a very good man.
अर्थात अनेक शिक्षकों में जो शिक्षक हमें अंग्रेजी पढ़ाते हैं, वे एक अच्छे आदमी हैं। इस प्रकार शिक्षक के अर्थ का विस्तार किया गया है।

(a) Subject के बाद who का प्रयोग। जैसे
