A Random Talk on Clauses of Purpose

Practically,the paper probes into the grammatical relation of the clause of purpose and comes to the conclusion that it is improper for some grammatical books to overlook the function of the clause of purpose or even consider it as a sub - type of the clause of cause-effect.

The paper,too,explains the way to distinguish the clause of purpose from the clause of cause-effect,the classification of the clause of purpose, and the function of the clause of purpose.
