Obs. 1. Compounds like as if, as when, really introduce two subordinate sentences: as, 'Tis e'en as if an angel shook his wings: 'Tis e'en as [it would be] if an angel shook his wings.

Obs. 2. The word that introduces :

(a) A noun sentence: as, I told him that I had received a small supply of money.

(b) An adjective sentence: as, Art thou the man that slew him?

(c) An adverbial sentence of manner (consequence): as, It is seldom danger is so pressing that there is not time enough for reason to do its work.

(d) An adverbial sentence of cause (purpose): as, He put down his weapon that he might rest awhile.

78. Care must be taken to distinguish between noun sentences, adjective sentences, and adverbial sentences introduced by the same connective : as,

(1) He knows when it happened.

(2) He knows the time when it happened. (3) He had just arrived when it happened.

Explanation. In (1), when it happened is the thing that is known, and is, therefore, a noun sentence. In (2), when it happened qualifies time, and is, therefore, an adjective sentence. In (3), when it happened modifies the verb had arrived, and is, therefore, an adverbial sentence.
