Independent clauses can stand on their own as complete sentences

An independent clause can stand on its own as a sentence and forms a complete thought. In other words, an independent clause is a full, complete sentence. These clauses will always contain at least one subject and verb. However, an independent clause can be simple or a little more complicated.

The answer is yes.

An independent clause is a set of related words that contains a subject and a verb and enunciates a complete idea.

Independent clauses are complete sentences. They start with a capital letter and end with a punctuation mark, like a period.

Examples:

• I picked a flower for you.

Dependent clauses contain a subject and a verb but do not express a complete idea.

Examples:

• When I picked a flower for you

What happened when I took the flower?

This is not an idea or a complete sentence.
