  • In this lesson, we take Relative Clauses to the next level. We can turn common complex sentences that are used in everyday life, and these often end in a preposition (e.g. "This is the man I spoke to yesterday"), into formal and sophisticated sentences (e.g. "This is the man to whom I spoke yesterday").
    Make sure if you haven't already checked out the lesson on Defining and Non-Defining Relatives clauses, you do so here:

    Little do I understand why your UA-cam channel is rather underrated. Be that as it may, I must have to say your explanation is crackerjack, in which I am capable to comprehend effortlessly most of your lectures. As a result of which, it has sequentially been boosted my academic writing.

    @ 13:47, its interesting how since and when can be combined in the same sentence. I have always known that since can be used with present perfect whiles when can be used with past simple. Anyway thanks for this awesome lesson. Much appreciated

    • @BuildingBlocksEnglish
      @BuildingBlocksEnglish  2 роки тому

      Thank you for your comment, Elvst.
      You're correct that we use "since" with Present Perfect tenses to show the connection between the action and the other point in time. "When" is also used with Past Simple (though also Present Simple in future time clauses).
      The usage of "since when" here, however, is a specific linking expression combining the two together. We only use it in this advanced relative clause structure.
      Hope that helps.

    In the last example, instead of by which time, can we use only by which?

    • @BuildingBlocksEnglish

      Thank you for your comment.
      In the last example, we should only use "by which time" as this is the complete expression to complete the advanced relative clause.

      To answer your question.
      "I don't like the bread in any of the bakeries."
      This is the correct answer.

    They're two green grocers in my town, neither of which sells / sell fresh foods.
    Plz sir , let me know sell or sells and do I have to use Comma here ?
    Thank you.

    • @paulsoper445
      @paulsoper445 2 роки тому

      Hello. Good question.
      Generally, "neither" is a singular indefinite pronoun, so it would take a singular verb (sells). However, in the expression "neither of + relative pronoun", it is referring to more than one thing. In this case "which" represents "them" (the two green grocers), so you should use a plural verb (sell).
      So, your sentence should read: "There are two green grocers in my town, neither of which sell fresh food." - And yes, there should be a comma before "neither".
      *Also, I would use "food" rather than "foods", because you're referring to it generally (uncountable) rather than specific varieties.
      Thanks for the great question!
