Defining relative clauses
Defining relative clauses give essential information to define or identify the person or thing we are talking about.
Some important things to know about these clauses:
- Commas are not used in defining relative clauses.
- Who, whom and which can be replaced by that. This is very common in spoken English (example sentences e and f).
- The relative pronoun can be omitted when it is the object of the clause. This is especially common in spoken English (example sentence e).

Non-defining relative clauses
In a non-defining clause, the information given is not essential. It tells us more about someone or something, but it does not help us to identify them or it (by the way, ...).
Some important aspects of a non-defining relative clause:
- They are always separated from the rest of the sentence by commas (brackets).
- In non-defining clauses, you can't use that instead of who, whom, which.
- You can't leave out the relative pronoun, even when it is the object of the verb in the relative clause.
