• Restrictive Relative Clause: It gives essential information about the noun or noun phrase it modifies, without which the sentence wouldn't make sense as the listener or reader would not be able to identify the noun in the sentence:
• Non-restrictive Relative Clause: gives extra information about a noun or noun phrase and has commas at both ends |
