Relative Clauses INTRODUCTION There are two types of relative clauses: 1. Defining relative clauses 2. Non-defining relative clauses DEFINING RELATIVE CLAUSES These describe the preceding noun in such a way to distinguish it from other nouns of the same class. A clause of this kind is essential to clear understanding of the noun. The boy who was playing is my brother. The man whom I saw told me to come back today.

Relative Clauses NON-DEFINING RELATIVE CLAUSES Non-defining relative clauses are placed after nouns which are definite already. They do not therefore define the noun. But merely add something to it by giving some more information about it. They are not essential in the sentence and can be omitted without causing confusion. They are separated from their noun by commas. The pronoun can never be omitted in a non-defining relative clause. The boy who was playing is my brother. Peter, whom everyone suspected, turned out to be innocent.
