Defining relative clauses Defining relative clauses give essential information to identify the person, thing or place we are talking about. They answer the questions: Which person? Which thing? Which place? Defining relative clauses come directly after the noun in, the main clause. We use who to talk about people, which to talk about things and where to talk about places. She's the teacher who | like, This is the book which you want. That's the shop where | bought these shoes. We can use that instead of who or which. The young man that/who 1 work with never stops talking. Tom bought the jacket that/which we sav yesterday. Don’t use commas before or after defining relative clauses. In defining relative clauses, we use the relative pronoun (who, which, where, that) instead of the subject pronoun (he, she, it, they), when the subject is the same in both clauses. The man lives next door. He came to see me yesterday. The man who lives next door came to see me yesterday. Pie oath who ines nent dinar he come tase tie: yesterday: ‘When the subject is different in the second clause, we need to keep the subject pronoun. She's the person. I saw her yesterday.
