1. Time adverbial clause

The clause used as a time adverbial clause in a sentence is called a time adverbial clause. In general, a time adverbial clause can be placed before or after the main clause. When it is placed before the main clause, it is usually separated from the main clause by a comma. There are many subordinating conjunctions that guide adverbial clauses of time. Here is a detailed introduction to their usage:

(1) when and while

When introduces a time adverbial clause, it means "when...". It can refer to either a time period or a point in time. Both continuous and non-continuous verbs can be used in the clause. like:

My mother was cooking when I arrived home.

When I was visiting London, I liked to travel by bus.

When introducing a time adverbial clause, it means "during...", which emphasizes that the action of the main clause and the action of the subordinate clause are carried out simultaneously and continuously or that the action of the main clause occurs during the action of the subordinate clause. The predicate verb in the time adverbial clause introduced by while must be a continuous verb. like:

While Mary was writing a letter, the children were playing outside.

While I was playing computer games, my father called me.

(2) before and after

Before introduces a time adverbial clause, indicating that the action of the main clause occurs before the action of the subordinate clause, and after introduces a time adverbial clause, indicating that the action of the main clause occurs after the action of the subordinate clause. like:

I will give you a call before I leave New York.

You can go out for a walk after you finish your homework.

(3) until

until introduces a time adverbial clause, indicating that the action expressed by the predicate verb of the main clause continues until the action expressed by the predicate verb of the clause occurs. Its common structure is not... until... which means "until... (start)...". like:

We waited until the rain stopped.

The boy didn’t go to bed until his mother came back.

(4) as soon as

The introductory clause as soon as means that as soon as the action of the subordinate clause occurs, the action of the main clause will occur immediately, which means "as soon as...as soon as...". like:

I will write to you as soon as I get to London.
