- That-clause: a subordinate clause that functions as the object of the main verb "said"
- Bracket diagram: [Content clause]
Sentence 2:
The teacher punished Joan [because she was late]
- Because-clause: a subordinate clause that expresses the reason for the main action
- Triangle diagram:
```
/|\
/ | \
/ | \
/ | \

V | V
[The teacher punished Joan] [because she was late]
```
