Understanding the structure of sentences is very important when studying English. In particular, relative clauses are elements that enrich and clarify sentences. In this article, I would like to provide an in-depth explanation of the definition and function of relative clauses, as well as supplementary relative clauses.<\/p>\n

1. Definition and Function of Relative Clauses<\/h2>\n

A relative clause (Restrictive Clause or Defining Clause) connects to the main clause and serves to describe the subject or object. Relative clauses are primarily initiated with relative pronouns (who, whom, whose, which, that). For instance, in the sentence ‘The man who is wearing a hat is my father.’, ‘who is wearing a hat’ is a relative clause that modifies the noun ‘The man’.<\/p>\n

1.1 Types of Relative Clauses<\/h3>\n

Relative clauses can be broadly divided into two categories: restrictive relative clauses and non-restrictive relative clauses.<\/p>\n
