I’d like to know this “that” clause’s function.
As the days passed, the nation grew increasingly skeptical that any of the minors had survived- let alone all of them.
I can assume it means the nation grew skeptical about the possibility that the minors had survived. But I’m not sure what the “that clause”’s function is here.
Could you please give me some examples of that clauses as it is used in the above sentence?
Thank you.
