These clauses are split into 2 parts, the main clause (independent clause) and the subordinate clause (dependant clause). A main clause is a complete sentence and makes sense on its own. A subordinate clause is not a complete sentence and does not make sense on its own. For example. The cat is yellow. (This is a main clause and makes sense on its own) With pink stripes. (This is a subordinating clause and does not make sense on its own) The cat is yellow with pink stripes. (This sentence makes sense!

For example. Either + Or (EITHER the cat has eaten his food OR the dog ate it.) Neither + Nor (NEITHER the cat ate the food NOR did the dog.) Both + And (BOTH the cat AND the dog are very hungry now.)
