- 9D: non-defining relative clauses

- practice (see week 4.0)

- maybe quizlet live?

Video

So i got a question about the spelling of the word e-mail last week (email appears to be new and not a problem) so I enjoyed watching this video about how words change and are added to the dictionary

Dictionaries can be political. What did you catch in the video about that?

Look at unit 9B: what is a defining relative clause?

which pronouns can we use to make one?

DUS

who	personen
which	dieren en dingen
that	personen, dieren en dingen
whose	bezit (van wie)
whom	als er een voorzetsel aan het begin vd bijzin staat

Relative clauses (bijzinnen)

what about leaving the pronoun out?

unit 9D: non-defining rel. cl.

Look at ex. 7 (use the purple text from ex. 6)

- try to find out what non-defining relative clauses are

- what are their rules?

- how are they different from defining relative clauses? 

Finished early? make ex. 8

relative clauses

there are two kinds of relative clauses:

1) restrictive or defining relative clauses

the man who I met yesterday turned out to be a relative of mine.

2) non-restrictive or non- defining relative clauses

James, who I met only yesterday, is a relative of mine.

Practice
