Relative Clauses
Intensifiers and mitigators
Determiners
Is also known as an adjective clause.
Mitigators
Intensifiers
Articles
There are three articles: a, an and The.
With comparative adjectives we use the following
words and phrases as mitigators.
- a bit
- rather
- a little
- bit
- slightly.
When we want to indicate that something or
someone is exceptional, we can use strong
adjectives.
Relative pronoun
A and an are used for indefine articles
The, is used for plural or singular
Restricitve clauses
A restrictive clause is also sometimes referred to as an
essential clause or phrase.
Demostratives
Singular: this, that
Plural: These, these
When the relative pronoun functions as the object of the
sentence, it can omitted from the relative
clause.
Some intensifiers
may only be used with particular adjectives.
Quantifiers
For uncountable
For countable
Both
Possesives
Nonrestrictive clause
Singular
Plural
A nonrestrictive clause adds additional information to a sentence. It is usually a proper noun or a common noun that refers to a unique person, thing, or event. It uses commas to show that the information is additional. The commas almost act like parentheses within the sentence.
If the information between the commas is omitted, readers will still understand the overall meaning of the sentence. A nonrestrictive clause is also known as a nonessential clause or phrase.
