Relative Clauses (see source content): Clauses that give extra information about a noun, either defining or non-defining, to specify or add detail. They are essential for providing clarity or additional context in sentences.
Purpose of Relative Clauses (see source content): To specify or add information about a noun, helping to identify exactly what or who we are talking about, or to provide supplementary details that enhance understanding.
Defining Relative Clauses (see source content): Clauses that specify which person, thing, or place is being referred to; they are essential to the meaning of the sentence and are not separated by commas. Examples include "who plays for hours" and "that will go on and on."
Non-defining Relative Clauses (see source content): Clauses that provide extra, non-essential information about a noun; they are set off by commas and cannot use "that" in place of "who" or "whose." Examples include "which are still very popular" and "players, who can begin to prefer their 'virtual' lives."
