Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, dependent means that whatever you are talking about is depending on something else. An independent clause can stand alone, yet a dependent clause can't. That's like saying that I could walk up to someone and saying "Although she was late". It just doesn't sound like a finished thought. This is why a dependent clause cannot stand alone.

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

A dependent clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb. It does not express a complete thought so it is not a sentence and can't stand alone
