HI😊
In today's class we talked about:
Relatives Clauses: Types and pronouns
Relative clauses are used to give additional information about a noun, such as a person, place or thing. Relative pronouns introduce a relative clause. They include who for people, that and which for things, when for time, and whose to show possession.
Relative clauses belong to one of two categories: defining relative clauses and non-defining relative clauses.
1. Defining relative clauses add essential information to a sentence.
These clauses give essential information about the subject of the sentence. They define the person, time or thing that we are talking about. If we remove the clause, the sentence does not make sense.
2. Non-defining relative clauses add extra information to a noun or noun phrase.
This extra information is not essential. If were move the clause, the sentence still makes sense.
That's it for today, see you in the next post.
