What is a relative proviso?
We can utilize relative conditions to join two English sentences, or to give more data about something.
I purchased another auto. It is quick.
→ I purchased another auto that is quick.
She lives in New York. She enjoys living in New York.
→ She lives in New York, which she enjoys.
Characterizing and Non-characterizing
A characterizing relative statement outlines for which thing we are talking:
I like the lady who lives nearby.
(On the off chance that I don't state 'who lives adjacent', at that point we don't know which lady I mean).
A non-characterizing relative provision gives us additional data about something. We needn't bother with this data to comprehend the sentence.
I live in London, which has some awesome parks.
(Everyone knows where London is, so 'which has some phenomenal parks' is additional data).
Characterizing relative provisos:
1: The relative pronoun is the subject:
To start with, how about we consider when the relative pronoun is the subject of a characterizing relative condition.
We can utilize 'who', 'which' or 'that'. We utilize 'who' for individuals and 'which' for things. We can utilize 'that' for individuals or things.
The relative provision can come after the subject or the protest of the sentence. We can't drop the relative pronoun.
For instance (provision after the protest of the sentence):
I'm searching for a secretary who/that can utilize a PC well.
She has a child who/that is a specialist.
We purchased a house which/that is 200 years of age.
I sent a letter which/that arrived three weeks after the fact.
More cases (statement after the subject of the sentence):
The general population who/that live on the island are agreeable.
The man who/that called is my sibling.
The camera which/that costs £100 is over yonder.
The house which/that has a place with Julie is in London.
Attempt an activity where the relative pronoun is the subject here.
2: The relative pronoun is the question:
Next, we should discuss when the relative pronoun is the protest of the condition. For this situation we can drop the relative pronoun on the off chance that we need to. Once more, the provision can come after the subject or the protest of the sentence. Here are a few illustrations:
(Proviso after the question)
She adores the chocolate (which/that) I purchased.
We went to the town (which/that) Lucy prescribed.
John met a lady (who/that) I had been to class with.
The police captured a man (who/that) Jill worked with.
(Proviso after the subject)
The bicycle (which/that) I adored was stolen.
The college (which/that) she enjoys is renowned.
The lady (who/that) my sibling adores is from Mexico.
The specialist (who/that) my grandma loved lives in New York.
Attempt an activity where the relative pronoun is the protest here
Attempt an activity about characterizing relative statements, both subject and protest here
Attempt another activity about characterizing relative provisos, both subject and question here
Non-characterizing relative provisos:
We don't utilize 'that' in non-characterizing relative provisos, so we have to utilize 'which' if the pronoun alludes to a thing, and 'who' on the off chance that it alludes to a man. We can't drop the relative pronoun in this sort of condition, regardless of whether the relative pronoun is the subject of the statement.
(Proviso comes after the subject)
My manager, who is extremely pleasant, lives in Manchester.
My sister, who I live with, knows a ton about autos.
My bike, which I've had for over ten years, is going into disrepair.
My mom's home, which I experienced childhood in, is little.
(Condition comes after the protest)
Recently I called our companion Julie, who lives in New York.
The picture taker called to the Queen, who looked irritated.
A week ago I purchased another PC, which I don't care for now.
I truly cherish the new Chinese eatery, which we went to the previous evening.
Relational words and relative conditions
In the event that the verb in the relative provision needs a relational word, we put it toward the finish of the proviso:
For instance:
tune in to
The music is great. Julie tunes in to the music.
→ The music (which/that) Julie tunes in to is great.
work with
My sibling met a lady. I used to work with the lady.
→ My sibling met a lady (who/that) I used to work with.
go to
The nation is exceptionally hot. He went to the nation.
→ The nation (which/that) he went to is exceptionally hot.
originate from
I went to the city. John originates from the city.
→ I went to the city (that/which) John originates from.
apply for
The activity is generously compensated. She connected for the activity.
→ The activity (which/that) she connected for is generously compensated.
Whose
'Whose' is dependably the subject of the relative proviso and can't be forgotten. It replaces a possessive. It can be utilized for individuals and things.
The puppy is over yonder. The pooch's/its proprietor lives nearby.
→ The pooch whose proprietor lives adjacent is over yonder.
The young lady is miserable. The young lady's/her doll was lost.
→ The young lady whose doll was lost is miserable.
The lady is coming this evening. Her auto is a BMW.
→ The lady whose auto is a BMW is coming this evening.
The house has a place with me. Its rooftop is exceptionally old.
→ The house whose rooftop is old has a place with me.
Where/when/why
We can once in a while utilize these inquiry words rather than relative pronouns and relational words.
I live in a city. I contemplate in the city.
→ I live in the city where I ponder.
→ I live in the city that/which I ponder in.
→ I live in the city in which I think about.
The bar in Barcelona is still there. I met my significant other in that bar.
→ The bar in Barcelona where I met my better half is still there.
→ The bar in Barcelona that/which I met my better half in is still there.
→ The bar in Barcelona in which I met my better half is still there.
The mid year was long and hot. I moved on from college in the mid year.
→ The mid year when I moved on from college was long and hot.
→ The mid year that/which I moved on from college in was long and hot.
→ The mid year in which I graduated was long and hot.
