Relative Clause/ relatif Klausul FOR CLASS X ENGLISH


Relative Clause

(source: Mulyono.2010. English Alive. Yudhistira: Jakarta.)

                A relative clause is a subordinate clause, which is generally preceded by a relative pronoun like: who, which, whom, etc. a defining relative clause is essential in a sentence because it qualifies the noun in the main clause in someway. While a non defining relative clause only gives an explanation, so it is not essential to the sentence.

                Examples:

Ø  My father is man who wears a blue skirt over there. (defining relative clause)

Ø  The object, which they want to visit, are very interesting. (non defining relative clause).

A relative clause may function as a noun (noun clause) as well as an adjective (adjective clause) in a sentence. Example:

Ø  This is the watch which father bought me. (adjective clause).

Ø  I can feel what you are feeling. (noun clause)
