This was such a great video. Thank you very much. I do have one suggestion though. If possible in the future, can you please read all the sentences out loud for any blind viewers. When it came time for practice, it would have been nice to participate. Thank you very much.

I was always confused about the use of that and which. This video is really helpful. Hopefully from now on, I will be able to use that words correctly.

I've given up trying to teach this point in freshman comp. It's difficult enough getting students to stop using sentence fragments these days. The Internet has all but killed literacy.

It’s the best explanation I’ve managed to find. Thank you very much! But I have another question. Could you explain why you use “describ” instead of “describ” in the sentence: The resources below break down the grammar rules associated with “that” and “which”and describ when to use each one.

The prescriptive claim from the video is unsubstantiated, 'which' can be used in restrictive relative clauses, according to the authors of The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language. (www.lel.ed.ac.uk/~gpullum/SIEG/relwhich.html)

I wish Purdue University had addressed the problem in their video that you draw attention to.

You must have missed a comma after the word 'pond' in your first sentence. [Pine Tree Elementary School, which was next to a duck pond (comma), always served pizza on Fridays]. The clause "which was next to a duck pond" is an additional information, although not necessary for the complete sentence: Pine Tree Elementary School always served pizza on Fridays.

*Please do not encourage people _that_ feed bread to ducks, as it is harmful for them.
