How are you?^^
<br>
I have one Question. please give me advice.
<br>
Yesterday night, I practiced Relative Clause, "Who".
<br>
Relative clauses have this function which make one sentence from two. isn't it?
<br>
I can understand this, then i have got curiosity about word order.
<br>
<br>
Question
<br>
Make one sentence from two.
<br>
(A police officer stopped our car. He wasn't very friendly.)
<br>
<br>
Answer key
<br>
The police officer who stopped our car wasn't very friendly.
<br>
<br>
But i wrote "The police officer who wasn't very friendly stopped our car"
<br>
I think both sentence can use. Is it right?
<br>
<br>
It is cold winter, Please take good care of yourself.

첫댓글Sure. And you can also say 'A police officer stopped our car, who wasn't very friendly.' But there're two points you need to reckon. 1. "He" in the 2nd sentence is a pronoun to modify "the police officer." That is, you were expected to replace "He" with "who." So the above answer would be preferred.
2. More important, you need to narrate facts "in sequence": before and after. Could you know the fact that the police officer wasn't very friendly, before you were stopped by him? So the given answer would be preferable. Be happy, Dry Grasses.
Sorry Paul, I'm late~^^ It is so marvelous and active collecting. Who can colect like this! I am very impressed. Thank you, for your kindness. I am thinking what you want to say to me is this. "In sequence is more important than grammer" (isn't it?)
"Grammer can help you for good conversation but if you don't mind sequence first, it will be confusing". Because not "grammer make sequence", but "sequence makes grammer"^^

Dear Dry Grasses, what I mean is that sequence of time meets "common sense". Take care.
OK paul~Have a nice day~
