A clause is a group of words that contain both a subject and a verb. They are not a sentence, yet they can become one if you capitalize the first letter, and add punctuation. They can be incomplete thoughts or complete.
Incomplete: As soon as I walked out.
Complete: She is miserable.
Dependent clauses are incomplete thoughts. Dependent clauses need a subordinating conjunction.
Independent clauses are complete thoughts. They can be a sentence, or can be in a sentence with a dependent clause.
