35.11. Clauses are very frequently used as tertiaries, introduced most often by particles (conjunctions), but also sometimes in other ways. We shall now give a selection of examples, arranged roughly according to the meaning of the clauses. It will be noticed that while clauses of place are uniformly introduced by where (and archaic whither), those of time and also some of the others present a great variety of construction; further that some conjunctions (as, while, since) are used with different meanings, and that that, which we met with in primary and secondary clauses, is used also in some of the classes here enumerated. There is thus a good deal of overlapping in such a classification.
