How nice to find someone who gets this correct for a change. There is so much wrong advice circulating on the internet and even in some grammar reference books and textbooks.
the best teacher ever thank you so much
I also think he's one of the best, maybe he is the best.
This lesson which I watched today was really perfect and helpful and that guy who wants to teach in english for other people named Alex is so friendly and helper,I suppose one day I'll learn this language thanks to you Dear Alex thanks for everything,so glad I've you
How can someone not like these videos? They help us a lot.
i agree
idk but maybe because hes fat? Thats the only reason I could think about. i liked the vid tho
This video had been created before 11 years when i was 11 year old now i have watched because i was confuse between that and which thanks you sir... Keep going love From India ...
I would say you are the best male Teacher on the web. Congratulations and thanks, dear Teacher!
I think that the relative clause in the third sentence cannot be removed because there are 7 Harry Potter books and we don't know which one of the seven you finished last week. It's better to either say, "The Harry Potter series, which I finished last week, was excellent." or remove the commas and make it an identifying clause.
I'm from Brazil, and I'm so happy to find out this channel...
you are explaining and speaking so easily that I cant stop watching. Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuu.
We can't find much difference in them while trying to understand, but I will tell you how one has to use them. Usually, we require them while writing a paragraph/an essay. As everybody knows that a paragraph is about one topic, and one has to focus on the same topic throughout the paragraph. However, in academic writing, you may have to divert something to give extra and out of the topic information. In this case, "which" should come into picture or else you are bound to use "that". Hope it helps
I really appreciate for this summarised lesson! I have got confused recently. Now, I solved my problems regarding this topic thanks to your assistance. 💙🌸
Very useful lesson, thank you so much Alex.
you engvid guys make things easier! you make the topic which confused me for so many yrs so easy to understand. it's amazing useful! thx u a lot, teacher
My pleasure! Thanks for studying with EngVid, and I'm glad it's been useful for you!
Thank you for the lesson. It was very well explained.
you're the best teacher, thanks a lot from venezuela!!!
your voice is so pleasant :) I love your lessons!
i love your vids.You 're making grammar so simple and interesting . .
Can use both 'which' and 'that' to add an essential information to give more meaning to the sentence. Otherwise sentence would be incomplete. Can use 'which' when you add an extra sentence even though sentence do not need that extra information and it would make a perfect sense without it. Hope I got it right. Thank you!
Im from turkey and I love yours video thank you so much
Great lesson, as always!
Hi, we can take out " that and which" in both first two examples because they refer to the object not to the subject.
This is what I learnt before, but now you change everything.
Your the best teacher ever! Thanks alex
you very good teacher I appreciate your work. I am from Saudi Arabia I want to say you " THANK YOU SO MUCH "
Very clear and easy to understand. Thanks!
Very good teacher. Congratulations Alex!
Excellent class Professor.
For the table sentence, can I switch the "which" for a "that"?

Sir all your lessons are best
What i like is grammar section
alex is a very polite and good teacher

Very good explanation! Thank you.
Hi Alex
I have a question. Does “She stopped me from going ahead with the plan, which was really bad” mean that it was really bad that she stopped me, or does it mean that the plan was really bad?
(Obviously if I’d used ‘that’ instead of ‘which’ it would be clear that it was the plan that was bad).
thanks and regards
please reply
Omg THIS LESSON, so good!! Great job Alex
thanks a lot for the lesson i have a question tho. so as from what i can tell if the information is worth mentioning use that if not use which (Btw i know it depends on the context but i meant in general) another thing if specific thing is mentioned in a sentence like this which one should i use (adidas is a company (that or which) provides stuff......
i've seen something like this and they say (which) . which makes sense as long its mentioned but i think that you can use both which or that because even if the information or the company's details are important so say but the company's name is mentioned before so it'd be additional information but u can use that because its essential i guess right? correct me if i'm wrong another example i am gonna say (annabelle is a movie (which or that) is directed by.....
i think here its which just because the information is not that important and there only one movie that's called annabelle .
another example is (another example (which or that) i'm not sure about.
another thing (the movie (that or which called) something is played) .and (a movie (which or that)called something is played.
all the examples that i mentioned are confusing and not sure what to say which or that
last thing are you sure because all the teachers on yt i guess didn't say that you can use which or that in identifying clauses they say only that
great video offering great help. thanks for sharing alex.
very well explained too.
Do you have any videos on the usage of "in which", with a detailed explanation?
Excelent class!!
Very well explained. The main point is if the "which" adds necessary informtion to the frase, then it is no preceeded by a coma. As "that" can only be used for identifying clauses, all sentences with a non-indentifying clause REQUIERE the use of "which"
Precisely. :)
Nice explanation sir!! 😊
Does it have something to do with proper and common nouns when using identifying and non-identifying clause?
the class was very helpful
Thank you for clear explanation.
The shoes, which I bought last week, are really comfortable.
The shoes that I bought in Mrcy are really comforable.

I loved it! Great!
excellent, Thanks Alex!
Excellent lesson!
Thanks
thanks . very simple and efficient explanation.
Great, so clear!
Thanks a lot. This really helped.
Thanks a lot for the lesson Alex!
If we write the second sentence with "That" It will be grammatically Incorrect ?
"The Table that I bought from Ikea was cheap" Incorrect ?
can we say that in identifying clause the subject is common noun and in the non.identifying proper?
Thank you, Alex, for each of your lessons, but I didn't understand this one 😕 Will watch again.
Alex, could you tell me if this terminology (identifying and non-identifying clauses) belongs to a scholar or linguist. According to Pit Corder, adjective clauses are classified as 'defining and non-defining clauses. I wonder if you didn't change the terms by mistake. If not, tell me the name of author of that theory.
e
what are the difference between relative clause and noun clause?
Perfect, Thank you very much.
hi! I am from Kazakhstan
I want to say that you are so good teacher.
And how many languages do you know?
thank you for your lessons!!
I have learnt a lot from you. Thank you.
great lesson, thank you, obrigado
your really very good teacher
thanks so much....
Thanks Alex , for your video and quiz , i attended the quiz and got a good score though, but i have one question for the very first question from the quiz.
ques -which is correct ..
1-I saw a speeding car, which really startled me.
2- I saw a speeding car, that really startled me.
i think "I saw a speeding car, which really startled me." is the correct one , bcoz "which really startled me" is a non-identifying clause . So using which should correct here. But quiz answer says "That" is correct one. Please explain a bit where i got wrong. Would really appreciate your comments ..
Manish Maurya I remember that the question says which is INCORRECT...
So there should be no problem, I think.
Thank you so much for your specific instrucition and explanation about what I've wondered. I already subscribed your contemnts. Good day, sir.
Great pieces of advice, Alex!
You could've also given some examples with people being the subject in sentences with non-identifying clauses, in which case I believe there would be no room for "which", only for "who", right?
You are correct, sir. :)
Thanks So Much Alex..:)
Your lesson is great.
Man... U re so good!!!!! thnx :)
It's a very good lesson!
excellent teaching alex...
These were adjective clauses. What about noun and adverbial ones? Thanks for your "classes" they are crystal clear.
Thank you Alex
Big thanks from Poland!
My pleasure! Thanks for studying with me, Zuzanna! A big "prosze" from Canada!
