If you listen to any News Channel on TV, when they do an interview with a member of the public, you'll learn that the British - especially when they have a microphone in front of them - love to use many, many, clauses lol
1. "Although it was raining, she decided to go out for a walk." (Subordinate clause: "Although it was raining.") 2. "While I was walking to school, I saw a dog chasing a cat." (Subordinate clause: "While I was walking to school.") 3. "If I were you, I would consider taking the train instead of driving." (Subordinate clause: "If I were you.")
