NOUN CLAUSES

The noun phrase takes the place of a noun.

Example:

I know how to go there.

In this example to go is an infinitive.

Sometimes, a noun clause may begin with a gerund ➡️

Example:

He remembers bringing chocolates. 

Bringing is a gerund.

A noun phrase comes after words that are connected with speaking or with the mind ➡️

Example:

I recommend swimming for sports.

The connectives, when,  why, what and how are often used to introduce the noun clause ➡️

Examples:

She will know what to buy later.

Mohi teaches me how to knit a sweater.

I realise how to solve this sum.

The date on the library card tells us when to return them.

The attendant showed me where to park my car.

I cannot decide what to buy for her birthday. 

I have not planned what to do with the old oven.

I always remember when to bring my school fees.

I am wondering what to cook for dinner tonight.
