1. Relatives clauses:

- Tell Students to identify a relative clause:

a) Crowed holiday resorts are not very pleasant.

b) Holiday resorts which are crowed are not very pleasant.

=> Crowed in a is an adjective, which are crowed is a clause The clause is doing exactly the same work as the adjective: it is describing the holiday resorts. So we can call it an adverbial clause or relative clause because it relates to the noun, in this case, by means of the word which. relative clauses can describe persons, things and events: Who, Which and When

=> There are two kinds of relative clause in written language.

* Relative clauses without comas are called defining or identifying clauses. They provide essential information about the subject or object.

Eg: What kind of book will be popular?

The book which contains pictures.

* Relative clauses with comas are called non- defining clauses. They provide additional information, which can be omitted.

Eg: The book, which contains pictures, will be popular
