I don't see the phrase "when it is whistle blew" anywhere. It doesn't mean anything. It doesn't make sense.I do understand when the whistle blew however, the only phrase I don't is when it is whistle blew. What kind of phrase is when its whistle blew.
The phrase "when its whistle blew" tells us the time you took the kettle off the stove. What confuses you about it?
- When refers to the time the whistle blew.
- Its refers to the kettle.
- The whistle is what is blowing.
- Blew is what the whistle did.
Now put it together: at the time the kettle's whistle blew.
Is it still unclear?
