人、物、場所についての情報を加えて、考えを1つの文にまとめます。
関係詞節は名詞についての情報を加えます。名詞のすぐ後ろに置き、2つの短い文を1つにまとめるのに役立ちます。I have a friend. She speaks five languages. は I have a friend who speaks five languages. になります。
| 語 | 使う対象 | 例 |
|---|---|---|
| who | people | The woman who lives next door is a pilot. |
| which | things and animals | The bus which goes to the airport leaves from here. |
| that | people or things (more informal) | Is this the key that opens the garage? |
| where | places | That's the café where we first met. |
| whose | possession (his, her, their) | I know a boy whose father is a chef. |
これらの文では、関係詞節が、どの人、物、場所のことなのかをはっきり示しています。これを限定用法の節と呼び、コンマは使いません。
関係詞は省略できる?
who、which、that が節の目的語であるとき(その後ろに別の主語が来るとき)は、省略できます。節の主語であるときは、省略できません。節が補足的な情報を加えるだけの場合は、コンマで区切り、that は使えません。
