Definig and non-defining clauses - Relative Clauses
Hello guys!
Today I'm sharing with you a really interesting topic.
As we know, we have been studying the defining and non-defining clauses and all kinds of them (phrases in apposition, preposition phrases, infinitive clauses and relative clauses), so I have focused this post related with the relative clauses in defining and non-defining ways.
Here you can see in the follow diagram how the relative clauses are divided.
As you noticed for defining and non-defining clauses in some cases we can use the same pronoun but in different context, The pronoun can be used to give a relevant and specific information or just to give extra information.
I think these differences and specifications has been ones of the most importat things that I have learned with this post.
but also I'm sharing with you a nice video, where you can watch how to use both kind of relative clauses in contex.
I hope that you enjoyed the video, it's really nice and useful.
Also at the end of the post, I have attached some links where you will find more and clear information about the topic and of course if you want to practice at the end of the post click on "Practice". I'm sure you will get 10 :)
