Sentence Structure

Relative Clauses

Relative clauses add information about a noun using pronouns like who, which, that, whose, and where. They can be defining (essential to the meaning) or non-defining (extra information set off by commas). Getting the pronoun and comma usage right is a key advanced skill.
