Explanation
- "where Wolfe's and Montcalm's armies fought" is an adjective clause (also known as a relative clause) because: - It begins with the pronoun "where" - It has a subject (Wolfe's and Montcalm's armies) and a verb (fought) - It functions as an adjective, modifying the noun "place" and providing additional information about which place is being referred to - It cannot stand alone as a complete sentenceThe adjective clause "where Wolfe's and Montcalm's armies fought" describes the place and indicates which specific place was the site of the battle.Note: Adjective clauses typically begin with pronouns like "where", "when", "why", or "how", and modify nouns or pronouns. In this case, the adjective clause "where Wolfe's and Montcalm's armies fought" modifies the noun "place".
