A clause is a group of words containing a verb and expressing a complete idea. An embedded clause is a type of clause that comes in the middle of a main clause and which adds extra information. An embedded clause is punctuated with commas either side of it.
E.g. The tornado, which the people had been warned about, ripped through the village.
