Adjective Clauses: Subject & Object Relative Pronouns

[@andreagiraldomdphd.8376]

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

[@TeacherWhatIDo]

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!

[@sereall9957]

Thank you so much, I have been stressed 3 days because I can't understand a difference about subject and object of adjective clause as a relative pronoun. And now I understand because of you. Thanks a lot!!

Finally, after years of studying, I've understood this stuff. Thank you so much!

[@elizabethmartinez5726]

Awesome! I've been trying to understand this difference for the last 3 days! Thanks a lot!

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]

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.

[@mauriciomortera6779]

@@TeacherWhatIDo yes, it does. Thank very much. I'll make my own video to explain to my students. Thanks again.

I has been clear for me now although I didn't know exactly how to differentiate between. AndThe way that you have explained is very clear clear. Thank you for that.

[@mattk7821]

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]

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"?

@@TeacherWhatIDo Your explanation makes sense, so thanks very much for the reply and clarification.

[@gambitodegama]

Is it possible to use whom instead of 'who' in the last example?

[@amirf3111]

Hi and thanks for this great video. In the first example, why isn't it: He printed the email (that) I sent to him? Thanks in advance!

Hello, Thank you for the video, it helped a lot. One question though, in the sentence "This is the house that Jack built" That is an object. Right?

[@TeacherWhatIDo]

Correct! Can you explain why?

[@aditirajpurohit6325]

@@TeacherWhatIDo because Jack is the subject. I got a misprint in my book... So thanks a lot. I have a request if you would explain in more detail the cases where relative pronoun "which" and "that" are used. I would really appreciate that. Thanks 🙏 (Namaste)

[@TeacherWhatIDo]

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!
