Use relative clauses to provide extra information. This information can either define something (defining clause), or provide unnecessary, but interesting, added information (non-defining clause).

Non-defining Relative Clauses

Defining Relative Clauses

The woman who lives in apartment No. 34 has been arrested.1. provide information which is necessary for the reader to understand the sentence2. NO commas3. we can use THAT here

Mr Brown, who is a doctor, is a very nice person.1. provide extra information; if you leave it the sentence still makes sense2. commas3. we never use THAT here

Remember!

Relative pronouns that we use

• Subject: who which
• Object: who, whom which
• Possessive: whose, of which
• Place: where
• Time: when

! After numbers and words like many, most, neither, and some, we use of before whom and which in non-defining relative clauses. Example: Many of those people, most of whom enjoyed their experience, spent at least a year abroad. Dozens of people had been invited, most of whom I knew.
