Defining relative clauses<br />
Relative clauses<br />
What is a relative clause?<br />
We can use relative clauses to join two English sentences, or to give more information about<br />
something.<br />
- I bought a new car. It is very fast.<br />
- I bought a new car that is very fast.<br />
A defining relative clause tells which noun we are talking about:<br />
I like the woman who lives next door.<br />
- She lives in New York. She likes living in New York.<br />
- She lives in New York, which she likes.<br />
(If I don’t say ‘who lives next door’, then we don’t know which woman I mean)<br />
More examples :<br />
The people who live on the island are very friendly.<br />
The man who phoned is my brother.<br />
The camera which costs £100 is over there.<br />
The house which belongs to Julie is in London.<br />
He is also the man whose idea was.<br />

The person that guessed the day correctly last year...<br />
