• Relative clauses (Revision) - Ôn tập mệnh đề quan hệ
• Omission of relative pronouns - Lược bỏ đại từ quan hệ

2.1. Relative clauses (Mệnh đề quan hệ): là một phần của câu nó có thể bao gồm nhiều từ hay có cấu trúc của cả một câu. Mệnh đề quan hệ dùng để giải thích rõ hơn về danh từ đứng trước nó.

• Ex: The woman who is wearing the T-shirt is my girlfriend.

2.2. Omission of relative pronouns (Lược bỏ đại từ quan hệ)

• Lược bỏ đại từ quan hệ là lược đi những từ "who, whom, which ..." chính là đại từ quan hệ.
• Đại từ quan hệ được lược bỏ khi nó làm tân ngữ và phía trước nó không có dấu phẩy, không có giới từ (whose không được bỏ)
  • Ex: This is the book which I buy. Ta thấy which là tân ngữ (chủ từ là "I", động từ là "buy"), phía trước không có phẩy hay giới từ gì cả nên có thể bỏ “which” đi ---> This is the book I buy.
• Lưu ý: Không lược bỏ đại từ quan hệ khi mệnh đề đó có chứa dấu phẩy và có giới từ phía trước đại từ.
  • This is my book, which I bought 2 years ago. (Mệnh đề có chứa dấu phẩy)
  • This is the house in which I live. (Mệnh đề có giới từ đứng trước đại từ quan hệ)
  • This is the man who lives near my house. ("Who" là chủ từ trong mệnh đề quan hệ ---> không thể lược bỏ)
