Sir I have a one question How to identify (defining and non-defining) during conversion? Both sentences are same but little bit different is there (,) I confused
At 9:53 How is "whose name is Jenny'' reduced to Jenny? I know we need to remove any forms of ''be'' and also the relative pronoun. But if I do so, I get "name Jenny'' so how did you eliminate name from ''name Jenny'' and got Jenny?
So, am I correct in thinking the My wife, Jenny reduced relative clause is not an appositive? Why could you not use that as an example of an appositive? Is it due to the nature of student (plural/many) and wife (singular/just the one)?
Deeva Juanita ‘noun phrase (,) noun phrase’ is an appositive. So ‘my wife, Jenny’ is an appositive, and yes, we can consider appositives to be REDUCED relative clauses (reduced as there is no relative pronoun). Please look for my lessons on appositives for more information.
I thought I would try and answer this as the question says asked one month ago. In your first example only "the students who passed the test 'celebrated the party' " ('celebrated at the party' I think you meant) In your second example "the students, who passed the test, " the passing of the test is incidental and not necessarily the reason they are celebrating. Here is an embedded example of both; The test was set for all the pupils across the two English classes. They all studied hard as the English Department had offered to throw a small party for those who passed. Sweets, drinks and snacks were amassed in preparation. The students who passed the test celebrated at the party. The test was set for all the pupils across the two English classes. The test clashed with another date in the school calendar, the summer party! Sweets, drinks and snacks were amassed whilst non-defining and defining clauses were revised. Finally, July 20th came. The students, who passed the test, celebrated at the party. Hope that helps. If not try swapping "who" for "that" in those two examples and consider the effect. In the second example you would remove the commas if you used "that".
going by what we can find on similar channels in teaching English industry on RUclips.. in my opinion Dave's channel is the best
"My wife who is an engineer won't go to the party, and my firefighter wife won't attend too." That part is hilarious!
This is the best channel.Thank you sir
Great instructor👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks you a lot l'm so glad that l found your channel.
I.m from Azerbaijan...
Well done Dave. Perfect lesson!
It can't get any better than this. Useful and helpful class. Thanks for sharing.
Thank youuuuu 😍
Sir, why do you use adverbs like this, "I 'really' AM confused." instead of just, "I am really confused" ? so why and what's the difference?
Thank you so much, Sir.

Im so glad l found this channel!!!!
Thank you for many useful lessons.
Sir, thanks so much, that is really helpful for me thanks again.
good video
Dear Prof wonderful lesson.
In the first 2 clauses I'd have used whom instead of who. Is it right ?
Yes, 'whom' is the correct form in the first 2 clauses.
How do we know the subject or object?
Thank you so much

@@MrSkypelessons OK, thanks
Hi there
Is it right to say"i know what u re talking about"
Is it relative clause so why here"what"is right
No. 'what you are talking about' is a content clause (noun - object of 'know') and not a relative clause (adjective clause that describes a noun)
The students who passed the test celebrated the party
The students, who passed the test, celebrated the party
Sir, what does these two sentences mean?
I thought I would try and answer this as the question says asked one month ago.
In your first example only "the students who passed the test 'celebrated the party' " ('celebrated at the party' I think you meant)
