-
How to distinguish the usage of that and which in the definite clause.
-
One of the simplest differences is that the subordinate clause followed by that must be a complete sentence, that is to say, both subject-verb-object, even if the previous subject is removed, it still will not affect the meaning of the following sentence, and which is different, it is often a supplement to a certain component of the subject-verb-object of the later clause, when taken out separately, the clause is not a complete sentence, there will always be something missing, so as long as you can determine whether a sentence is complete, Then it's easy to distinguish which from that.
-
Just distinguish whether the antecedent is modified by the words "the only", "the very", and the superlative, the last.
