Defining and Non-Defining Relative Clauses
 That is the woman who stole my phone.
 This is the book that I read.
 The car that I drive is a red Mercedes.

Defining relative clauses add essential

information to a sentence and the clause cannot be
omitted. Above sentences exemplify the same.
continues
Now lets see what happens if we take out the relative
clause:
 That is the woman.
 This is the book.
 The car is a red Mercedes.
As you can see the, the meaning of the sentences have been
completely changed, or they don't really mean anything.
We now have questions about the noun:
 The woman who what?
 The book that what?
 What car?
Non-Defining Relative Clause
 Non-defining relative clauses are not essential to the
sentence. If the clause is removed, the sentence still
makes sense and has the same meaning.

 The information may of course be relevant, which is

why it is included, but it is not the main point that the
sentence is trying to convey about the noun.

 My grandmother, who is 86 years old, is coming
on holiday with us this year.
 My car, which a Mercedes, can reach speeds of 140 km
per hour.
 Canberra, which is the capital of Australia,
is located at the northern end of the Australian Capital
Territory
continues
If we now take out the non-defining relative clauses, the
main idea of the sentence remains and the sentence still
makes perfect sense.
 My grandmother is coming on holiday with us this year.
 My car can reach speeds of 140 km per hour.
 Canberra is located at the northern end of the Australian
Capital Territory.

Note: In defining relative clauses the

words who or which can be replaced by that
In non-defining relative clauses that cannot be used.
