TYPES OF NOUN CLAUSES Among subordinate clauses, we can distinguish a class of noun clauses, which have a distribution comparable to that of noun phrases in matrix clauses. The fact that a clause is characterized as a noun clause does not say much about its functional type.

Noun clauses are most often used as complements and as (constituents of) adverbial clauses, though the latter need not contain noun clauses.
