An independent clause is a group of words that can stand alone as a complete sentence. It contains both a subject and a predicate and expresses a complete thought. For example, "She went to the store."

An independent clause is a type of clause that can stand alone as a sentence. It expresses a complete thought and contains a subject and a predicate. For example, "I went to the store."

On the other hand, a dependent clause is a type of clause that cannot stand alone as a sentence. It is dependent on an independent clause to form a complete sentence. Dependent clauses often begin with subordinating conjunctions like "because," "although," "if," etc. For example, "Because I was hungry" is a dependent clause because it cannot stand alone as a complete sentence.

The phrase "Before our last class" is a dependent clause because it does not express a complete thought and cannot stand alone as a sentence. It is missing a subject and a verb. It could be part of a complete sentence when combined with an independent clause, such as "We reviewed the material before our last class."

"Until I see it for myself" is a dependent clause because it does not express a complete thought and cannot stand alone as a sentence. It is missing a subject and a complete verb. It could be part of a complete sentence when combined with an independent clause, such as "I won't believe it until I see it for myself."

"Jim won the bet." is an independent clause because it is a complete thought that can stand alone as a sentence. It has a subject (Jim) and a predicate (won the bet) and does not rely on any other clause to make sense.
