Grammar

Relative pronouns 

Bijzinnen die extra informatie geven over iets of iemand 

• Sam, who lives next door, is my best friend 
• Dancing is a hobby that takes up a lot of time 

Belangrijkste punten

who       -->   personen

which   -->   bij dieren en dingen

that       -->   bij personen, dieren en dingen (informeler)

                         (tenzij de bijzin begint met een komma)

whose  -->   bezittelijk

Als de informatie in een zin onmisbaar is, kan je who, which of that vaak weglaten
