Fronted adverbials are words or phrases at the beginning of a sentence which are used to describe the action that follows, such as: Without hesitation, Riyad reached up to grab the ball. Every evening, Maiya practises with her guitar. Cheekily, Liza smiled when she saw her cards.

An expanded noun phrase provides extra information about the noun. You can use adjectives or modifying nouns to give more information within your sentences, such as: some exciting holiday brochures a cute, pink pig the majestic, magical unicorn

A relative clause gives us extra information about the noun in the main clause. It is connected to the main clause by a relative pronoun . Examples are: The squirrel , which was half way up the tree, clung onto the trunk. Sebastian , who was previously undefeated, now stands in fourth place. The storm , that was predicted yesterday, almost capsized the boat.
