  2. What are relative clauses? • Son oracionessubordinadasadjetivasporque: • Son parte de unaoración principal • Funcionancomo un adjetivo. • El nexoes un pronombrerelativo. Supongamos la oración simple: The TALL man came yesterday Adjetivo • The man came yesterday. • The man is tall.

  3. The TALL man came yesterday Adjetivo Aquí hay dos ideas sobre un mismoelemento: The man • The man came yesterday. • The man is tall. The man WHO is tall came yesterday Donde: 1.- El nexo de relativo WHO = THE MAN 2.- The man came yesterday es la oración principal 3.- WHO is talles la de relativo 4.- WHOes el pronombrenexo de relativo 5.- The man es el antecedente. En lugar de poner un adjetivo delante del nombre, podríamos unirlas de la siguiente manera:

  4. La oración The man WHO is tall came yesterday es una oración poco probable porque podemos reducir la parte “WHO IS TALL” a un solo adjetivo “TALL”, con lo que simplificamos, y por lo tanto preferimos decir: The tall man came yesterday Sin embargo, si queremos unir estas dos informaciones 1.- Themancameyesterday 2.- Themanboughtthe red car. en una sola oración, no podemos usar un adjetivo que exprese una idea tan compleja como “Themanboughtthe red car”, y entonces se hace necesario utilizar la oración de relativo: ThemanWHO BOUGHT THE RED CAR cameyesterday.

  5. Dado que las oraciones de relativo son informaciones sobre un sustantivo (ANTECEDENTE), aquéllas siempre irán inmediatamente detrás de éste, y el orden de dichas oraciones siempre será ANTECEDENTE + PRONOMBRE + ORACIÓN DE RELATIVO RELATIVO Thisis THE MAN THAT I SAW YESTERDAY

  6. THE PROBLEM IS… Comparadas con el español, las oraciones de relativo en inglés presentan algunas diferencias: 1.- En español, siempre aparece el pronombre de relativo; en inglés, a veces no. La casa que compraste era muy cara. Thehouse--- youboughtwasveryexpensive. 2.- Cuando hay preposiciones en la oración de relativo, en español aparece delante del pronombre de relativo; en inglés, habitualmente no aparece delante del pronombre de relativo. Hay que saber cuándo ocurre esto y dónde se coloca esa preposición. El profesor con el que estabas hablando era Bob. Theteacher-------- youweretalkingtowas Bob.
