How do you use the word subordinate in a sentence?
The Captain is subordinate to a General in rank.Subordinate has a few meanings. It can mean below someone in status, e.g 'the peasant was subordinate to the King.'It has a similar meaning in that it can be used to describe someone who works for someone else, e.g 'the politician is subordinate to the Prime Minister.'Another use of subordinate is in 'subordinate clause,' which denotes a part of a sentence that adds to the main clause but cannot be used as a sentence in it's own right.

What are the two kind of clause?
In English grammar there are two main types of clauses. They are eitherindependent (main) clauses, which need nothing further, ordependent (subordinate/relative) clauses which need, or are subordinate to, an independent clause.For example:'The restaurant wasn't very clean.' is an independent clause. It needs nothing further in order to have meaning.But in the sentence 'The restaurant we went to on Saturday wasn't very clean', the phrase 'we went to on Saturday' is a dependent (subordinate/relative) clause. It adds information about the noun i.e. 'the restaurant' that preceded it.Dependent clauses are of different types and can take a number of forms.For more information, see 'Related links below.
