    In last adjective clause: why did you use who instead of whom ( who is subject whom is object)? Thank you. A

      Good question! You are correct that we can use "whom" in this case because it is an object relative pronoun. I like to point out to my students that "who" and "whom" are both correct in this case, and that "who" is actually more common in spoken English. I would focus more on this distinction when teaching specifically about who/whom. Thanks for watching!

    Hello I'm a Mexican teacher English in Mexico and I'm currently teaching this content. But I'm struggling a little bit with it.
    I understand that the subject is the doer of the action. But in the first sentence "He printed the email that I sent him" There are two verbs right? Printed and sent. So how can I know who the subject is? Or is always taken from the relative clause?

    • @TeacherWhatIDo
      @TeacherWhatIDo  4 года назад +1

      Good question! When you're trying to figure out whether the relative pronoun is subject or object, you need to focus on the relative clause and its verb. In this case, the relative clause is "that I sent him." Does that answer your question? Let me know if it is still not clear.

    Hi, and thanks for the very good vid. In the last one, please clarify why the adjective clause is not - lives in Wyoming-?
    In this example "the water which people used in his village was often impure" I would have thought that "was often impure" was the adjective clause, but I must be wrong for the same reason, and I can't work out why. Thank you in advance.

    • @TeacherWhatIDo
      @TeacherWhatIDo  5 лет назад

      Great question! A good way to figure it out is to look at each verb, and think about its subject. In your example, what is the subject of the verb "was"? The subject is "the water." So your main clause is "The water was often impure." Your adjective clause is "which people used in his village." You can do the same thing with the example from the video. What is the subject of the verb "lives"?

      That sounds like a great idea for a future video-- thanks! For now, here are a couple of basic rules: 1) "that" can be used for people and things, while "which" can't be used for people. 2) "that" can only be used in restrictive clauses, while "which" can be used in restrictive and nonrestrictive clauses.

    Thank you so much for this video! I've been studying the correct way to word a sentence that has the text "You will discern the difference between him who serves God and him who does not serve God." Before watching your video, I didn't know if "him" was part of the relative clause (and therefore should be subject case "he"), or if it was part of the main clause. Now, I think I understand "him" is part of the main clause and is an object. Thanks again!
