Defining– Non-defining relative clauses There are two types of relative clauses: defining relative clauses and non-defining relative clauses.
A defining relative clause gives necessary information and is essential to the meaning of the main sentence. We do not put the clause in commas.
The woman who/that lives next door is a teacher. (which woman? The one who lives next door.)
A non-defining relative clause gives extra information and is not essential to the meaning of the main sentence. The clause is put in commas. We cannot omit the relative pronoun. We cannot use that instead of who or which. My uncle Peter, who lives in New York, is an architect. (My uncle Peter is an architect – the meaning of the sentence is clear. Who lives in New York – the relative clause gives extra information.)
