To make a good narrative text the use of a group of words is so important

too. Such as using of adverbial clause, adverbial clause is a dependent clause that

functions as an adverb and provides information about verbs, adjectives, or

adverbs that are in the independent clause with the capacity to answer questions

such as how, when, where, and why. With the adverbial clause, the text will be

more clear, and informative. Therefore, on this journal will disccuss an adverbial

analysis in narrative text.

II. THEORY

2.1. Definiton Of Adverbial Clause

Adverbial clause is a dependent clause that functions as an adverb and

provides information about verbs, adjectives, or adverbs that are in the

independent clause with the capacity to answer questions such as how, when,

where, and why.

2.1.1 Function Of Adverbial clauses

An adverb clause is used in a sentence to add relevant and descriptive

information to content.

2.1.2. Components of an Adverbial Clause

An adverb clause has a number of essential components:

Many adverb clauses also have objects.

2
  A subject

 A predicate

 A subordinating conjunction

 Subject

Is a person or thing that is “doing” something in the clause. It answers the

question “who/what”. A subject can be a pronoun, a noun, a noun phrase

(noun+modifiers) or even a verb (an infinitive or gerund):

Example :

 He came home very late. (pronoun)

 A cat crossed the street. (noun)

 Small children can be hyperactive. (noun phrase)

 To leave was a good idea. (infinitive)

 Swimming is a great exercise. (gerund)

 Predicate

Tells us what the subject “does”. It can be a verb or a verb phrase

(verb+objects or modifiers):

 Audrey laughed. (verb)

 Audrey laughed happily (verb + modifier)

 Audrey laughed like a little child. (verb phrase)

3
  Conjunction (trigger word)

Most adverb clauses begin with a conjunction or “trigger word”. A

conjunction sets the context of the sentence. It can indicate time, place, manner,

condition, etc. Conjunctions used with adverb clauses are called subordinating

conjunctions. Adverb clauses are therefore called subordinate clauses or

dependent clauses.

2.1.3. Types of Adverbial Clause

These are type od adverbial clause :

 Time : when, whenever, before, after, as, while, until, as soon as,

since

 Place : where, wherever, everywhere

 Condition : if, unless, provided that

 Manner : like, as though, as if

 Reason : because, since, as

 Effect : so that, such that

 Comparison : where, wherever, everywhere

 Contrast : althought, though, even if, even tough, while, whereas

 Purpose : so that, last, in order that

And for the positions there are three types :

 At the beginning

 At the middle,

4
  and at the end

III. ANALYSIS

For the information :

 ATB : At the beginning

 ATM : At the middle
 ATE : At the end
 T : Time
 P : Place
 C : Condition
 M : Manner
 R : Reason
 E : Effect
 C2 : Comparison
 C3 : Contrast
 P2 : Purpose

ago, when i
got my
holiday me
and my  
friend agreed
to went to

our energy
4 Just in case,
we began our

IV. CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTIONS

Based on the analysis explanation the result like on this table :

EMERGENCE BASED ON THE

BASED ON THE EMERG TYPES

7
 POSITION ENCE T P C M R E C C P
1 2 2
At the beginning 1 1
At the middle 4 3 1
At the end 7 1 6

Thus, can be concluded the most emergence adverbial clause based on the

position is at the end, there are 7 times, and based on the types is in reason there

are 6 times emmergences.
