  Relative clauses

where

why

Defining

Non-defining

So, with defining relative clauses

We get essential information about a person, object, situation, etc. Without it the sentence wouldn't make any sense.

Characteristics:

1. No commas used on either side of the clause.

2. accompanied by relative pronouns: who, which, whose, where, when, why.

3. who and which can be replaced by that.

4. who, which and that can be omitted when they are the object (lijdend vw).

So, with non-defining relative clauses

We get extra information about a known person, object, situation, etc. 

Characteristics:

1. Commas used on either side of the clause.

2. accompanied by relative pronouns: who, which, whose, where, when.

3. who and which can NOT be replaced by that.

4. who, which and that can NOT be omitted when they are the object 

(lijdend vw).

Not:

why!

1. Defining relative clause
2. Non-defining relative clause

1. , whose
2. whose
3. , which
4. that

1. which
