  2. Defining and non-defining relative clauses Vztažné věty

  3. Defining relative clauses Task: underline the relative clause 1/ A king is a person who rules the country. 2/ A dinosaur is an animal that lived a long time ago. 3/ A bank is a place where you go to get some money.

  4. Relative clauses • We use relative clauses to give additional information about something (a noun) without starting another sentence. • Usually we use these relative pronouns: 1/ who (a person) 2/ which (a thing) 3/ that (a person or a thing) 4/ where (a place) 5/ whose 6/ why (reason) 7/ when (time)

  5. A princess A frog A museum A mug A library A newspaper A plane A flower Is a girl who wears a beautiful dress, lives in a castle and will marry a prince Give a definition

  6. Defining relative clause • Points to the particular person / thing Ex. The person who brought us the coffee had very nice eyes. The house where she lives is very far. • Has no commas!!! • Relative pronouns (not always obligatory): 1/ who 2/ which 3/ that

  7. In defining relative clauses we might drop the relative pronoun completely: if the subject of defining clause is an object of main clause Ex. The book (which) I bought is not very good. The boy (who/whom) we met esterday was Alice’s brother.

  8. Fill in the correct relative pronoun 1/ This is the house ______ my parents want to buy. 2/ Who was the girl _____ I saw you talking to? 3/ What do you call the people ____ live in Scotland? 4/ The postcard ______ I send you was written on the summit of Ben Nevis. 5/ The school ______ I study is called MG.

  9. Non-defining relative clauses • Give us only further information about something • Do not influence the meaning of the sentence • We can leave them out completely • We use commas!!! Ex. John Grisham, who writes about legal things, is my favourite author.

  10. Relative pronouns: 1/ who 2/ which • In non-defining relative clauses the relative pronoun must be always present!!!

  11. Defining or non-defining relative clause? 1/ My students who never do their homework will fail the exam. 2/ Valencia, which is Spain's third largest city, is on the Mediterranean coast. 3/ That dog whose bone you took is going to bite your leg off. 4/ They want to show me their new car they bought in Germany. 5/ The tree in front of my house, which I used to climb as a child, had to be cut down.

  12. Common mistake WHAT vs WHICH • WHAT is not a relative pronoun • We cannot say: Ex. Tell me something what I do not know. • We must say: Ex. Tell me something that I do not know.

  13. How to Shorten Relative Clauses? • Relative clauses with who, which, that as subject can be replaced with a participle: Ex. I told you about the strange guy who lives next door. I told you about the strange guy living next door.
