What is Sequence of Tenses in Direct Clauses about?
The document discusses the sequence of tenses in English, specifically the tenses that can be used in subordinate clauses depending on the tense used in the main clause. It addresses the tenses used after past simple in direct object clauses (e.g. she said that she was happy), in time clauses (e.g. I will call you when I finish), in purpose clauses (e.g. she is studying so that she may pass), and after "in case" (e.g. take your umbrella in case it rains). Exceptions and examples are provided.
