Abstract
Noun clauses in English go unattended in many grammar books and coursebooks. Although reported speech is part of noun clauses, it is given in B1 level, but noun clauses are not taught even in advanced levels. In the study we did, we worked on advanced learners of English who were candidates for taking IELTS exam and realized that even these adult learners did not know this topic. We explained the topic by dividing into segments and concluded that they got very successful at this topic. Noun clauses are so uncommonly taught that even these learners did not do well in the pre-test, but later in post-test, they got satisfactory results showing that they had learned thoroughly.
