RELATIVE CLAUSES

Defining and Non-defining 

What is a relative clause?

Relative clause is a word that can be a noun, adjetive or pronoun. They´re used to identify what person or  thing we are talking about.

With relative clauses we can say extra information, adding new data to the phrase.


What is a Defining clause?

When I give only need information and don´t use commas in the sentences, I´m providing dates as an identifying clause that can be called restrictive clause too.


What is a Non-defining clause?

When I give extra information about a place, a thing or a person I am using Non-defining clauses. In context, I give information that people don´t need to know at this moment but I do.
