THAT/WHICH

When we think of an adjective, we usually think about a single word used before a noun to modify its meanings . However, an adjective can also come in the form of an adjective clause.

Read the comments below and choose the appropriate one.

English has a zero relative pronoun ¿ that is, the relative pronoun is implied and not explicitly written or spoken; it is 'unvoiced'. This measure is used in nonrestrictive relative clauses (only) as an alternative to voicing that, which or who, whom, etc. in such clauses.

The distinction between the relative pronouns that and which to introduce relative clauses is a frequent point of dispute. The relative pronoun that can only be used in nonrestrictive clauses.

Non-restrictive or non-essential adjective clauses simply gives extra information about the adjective. This additional information can be omitted.

Restrictive or essential adjective clauses offers essential information and is needed to complete the sentence's thought. They are closely connected with their heads. These clauses tell us which person or thing the speaker means.

The use of ´that´ is more appropriate than which after the pronouns all, any(thing), every(thing), few, little, many, much, no(thing), more, none, any, anything, anybody, somebody, some(thing).
