Relative clauses

We use relative clauses to describe or give extra information about something we have already mentioned. We often use them to avoid repetition. 

We often use relative pronouns (e.g. who, where, that, which, whose) to introduce relative clauses.

Relative clauses

Restrictive relative clauses:  you need them in the sentence for it to make sense. They give you essential information. NO COMMAS!!!

Non-restrictive relative clauses: They give extra information, which isn’t absolutely necessary. We use COMMAS to separate them from the rest of the sentence. 

Relative clauses

Restrictive relative clauses (no commas):

You can leave out that when:

• it is the object of the relative clause
• it is followed by a pronoun (name or I, you, he, she etc.)

This is the house that Jack built.
