    1. The connecting word that generally cannot be omitted, but when the main clause contains some form of the verb do, that can be omitted. Such as:

    what i want to do is (that) i can go up to him and thank him.What I want to do is walk up to him and thank him.

    2. When the subject of the sentence is:

    Advice, demand, decision, desire, idea, insistence, instruction, order, plan, proposal, recommendation, request, requirement, suggestion, wish, etc.

    , a predicative clause.

    Subjunctive mood is required.

    That is: should +do. Such as:

    my advice is that you should go to apologize to him.My suggestion is that you should go and apologize to him.

    The conjunctions of the conjunctive clause are: that, what, who, when, where, which, why, whether, how, whoever, whichever, whatever, etc. There are also things like because, as if

    as though, etc.

    1、his suggestion is that we should stay calm.

    His advice was that we should remain calm.

    In general, the conjunction that leads the object clause that can be omitted. Such as:

    i think (that) tom will pass the exam.I think Tom will pass the exam.

    But in the following special cases, the conjunction that leads the object clause that cannot be omitted:

    1.That cannot be omitted when the object clause that leads to that can be placed at the beginning of the sentence in order to emphasize that. Such as:

    that he ever did such a thing i simply don’t believe.I couldn't believe he had ever done such a thing.

    2.When that clause is separated from a verb by other words or clauses, that should generally not be omitted to avoid semantic confusion. Such as:

    they told us once again that tom was right

    Again, they tell us that Tom is right.

    3.When two or more that-led object clauses are used in parallel, even if the introductory word that of the first clause is omitted, the subsequent that cannot be omitted. Such as:

    he said (that) he couldn't tell you now and that you will understand.

    He said he couldn't tell you right now that you'd understand.

    1. That is a relative pronoun in guiding a definite clause, which plays the role of a pronoun in a clause instead of a precedent, and can be used as a subject, object and other sentence components in the definite, and that can be omitted when acting as an object.

    2. In the restrictive definite clause, that can sometimes be used as a relational adverb to make an adverbial from it, and the that of this usage can also be omitted.

    3. That is a connecting word when guiding a noun clause, which only plays a connecting role, cannot be used as a sentence component in a clause, and has no meaning in itself, and that can be omitted when guiding an object clause.

    That pronunciation: English [ t , t ] American [ t , t].

    Paraphrasing: Used after certain verbs, adjectives, and nouns, to lead to a clause, (indicating the result) so....And so on.

    Grammar: That refers to a person or thing when used as a relative pronoun while acting as a sentence component in a clause. That can also occasionally lead to non-restrictive definite clauses.

    That is also commonly used in place of who, whom, which, but that....That in which is used as a relative pronoun antecedent.

    It depends on what you're seeing this sentence in.

    The introductory word that after is cannot be omitted, and the introductory word of the predicative clause. It would be wrong to omit it here.

    In the predicative clause, when that is used as a leading word, there is a case of omission:

    For example, if it is used as a formal subject, that will be omitted.

    it is a pity (that) you missed the bus yesterday.

    In informal language, it can sometimes be omitted in informal settings.

    the only problem is (that) you can't eat trees.

    It's not that it can't be omitted, it can't be omitted in general, if the predicate is relatively long, especially if there is a clause guided by that, it can be omitted.

    Just as confused as you, respond with a thumbs up.

    Yes, in the noun clause, except for the introductory word that of the object clause, which can be omitted, the other three noun clauses that cannot be omitted.

    The predicative clause that cannot be omitted. But it was omitted again, so I had to ask the author himself, hoping that he would give an explanation. Can you reach the author? I'd also like to know why.

    1. When guiding non-restrictive definite clauses.

    the tree, that is four hundred years old, is very famous here.(Wrong usage).

    2. It cannot be used after a preposition.

    we depend on the land from which we get our food.

    We depend on the land from which we get our food.

    we depend on the land that/which we get our food from.

    We rely on the land from which we get our food.

    The subject clause guided by that cannot be omitted. Take a look at the example sentence:

    that he has told lies is quite clear.He lied, that's obvious.

    that he has told lies" is the subject clause, which is the subject in the sentence and is regarded as singular, and the predicate verb is singular. If that is omitted, the sentence becomes: he has told lies is quite clear

    There are two predicates in the sentence, has told and is, which will cause confusion in understanding and are obviously wrong sentences.

    In addition, the subject clause guided by that is often placed at the end of the sentence and preceded by it as the formal subject. Such as:

    it goes without saying that he loves her at the first sight.There is no doubt that he fell in love with her at first sight.

    it is sheer luck that he survived the accident.It was pure luck that he escaped the accident.
