RELATIVE CLAUSE
Relative
Clause adalah bagian dari kalimat (anak kalimat) yang memberi keterangan
pada orang atau benda yang mendahuluinya.
Istilah Relative Clause sama
dengan Adjective Clause. Disebut Adjective Clause karena dia
menerangkan benda atau orang yang mendahuluinya. Disebut Relative
Clause karena dia menghubungkan (me-relate) benda atau orang tersebut
dengan frasa di belakangnya. Relative Clause diawali dengan kata penghubung who,
whom, whose, which, that.
v Who : menerangkan orang sebagai
subject
v Whom : menerangkan kan orang sebagai object
(menggantikan me, you, us, him
her, them,
it)
v Whose :menerangkan orang sebagai pemilik/
kepunyaan (menggantikan my, your, our, his, her,
their, its)
v Which : menerangkan benda sebagai subject
maupun object
v That : menerangkan orang atau
benda baik sebagai subject maupun object
Rumus:
Relative Clause = Relative Pronoun +/- Subject + Verb
