一、限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句的区别
1.限制性定语从句
它是先行词在意义上不可缺少的定语,如果去掉,主句的意思就不完整或失去意义。这种从句与主句的关系十分密切,书写时不可用逗号分开。
This is the best novel that I have ever read.
这是我曾经看过的最好的小说。(限制性定语从句,先行词是novel)
2.非限制性定语从句
它只是对先行词作附加补充说明,如果去掉,主句的意思仍然清楚完整。这种从句与主句的关系不是很密切,书写时往往用逗号分开。非限制性定语从句一般不用that引导。
The novel,which I read last night,is very interesting.
我昨天晚上看过那部小说了,它非常有意思。(非限制性定语从句,先行词为novel)
