NON-DEFINING RELATIVE CLAUSES

PROPOZIȚIA RELATIVĂ NEDEFINITĂ

Ex.: William Shakespeare wrote 154 sonnets.

Această propoziție este independentă, deoarece știm la cine se referă vorbitorul. Este indicat
în mod clar: William Shakespeare. Totuși, dacă dorim să adăugăm informații suplimentare,
putem să o facem utilizând o propoziție relativă nedefinită:
William Shakespeare, who died in 1616, wrote 154 sonnets.
Propoziția relativă nedefinită din frază ne oferă informații adiționale. Rețineți că propozițiile
relative nedefinite sunt separate de restul frazei prin virgule.
Folosim WHO atunci când vorbim despre o persoană. Folosim WHICH atunci când vorbim
despre un obiect.

Use WHO or WHICH to make sentences. // Folosiți WHO sau WHICH ca să formati
propoziții.
EX.: Mongolia is the home of an Asian race, who are called Mongols.
a) Mongolia / home / Asian race / are called Mongols.
b) Wellington / capital / New Zealand / is the world’s largest producer of kiwi fruit.
c) Daniel Defoe / author / Robinson Crusoe / was translated into many languages.
