The relative pronoun "that" is used with an essential clause and the relative pronoun "which" is used with a nonessential clause. In three to five sentences, explain when to use each pronoun and the difference between the two relative clauses. (2 points)
Ive been doing this test for 5 fricken hours straight
So In a defining clause, use the word that, but in a non-defining clause, use which. A non-defining clause is as disposable as a mask. If you are able to remove the clause without messing up the meaning of the sentence, then the clause is non-defining.
Do you see what changes I made? Only "defining" and "non-defining" are used. No mixing up "non-essential" in this!!
So I Rewrote it. this is what i came up with. i tried my best not to copy.
So In a defining clause, use the word *that* And In a non-defining clauses, use *which* which Is as disposable as a mask. If you are able to remove the clause without messing up the meaning of the sentence, then the clause is nonessential. And When You use *That* is used in defining clauses.
Writeacher is a pain like if u agree
yo chill?
r u stuck step bro
so basically:
"that" cannot be removed from the sentence, but "which" can. you use "that" when referring to something- especially infront of you- (e.g. "that dog") but "which" is used to add information, such as "the dog, which has a history of thievery, stole a pie"
hope this makes sense and is correct? don't copy and paste btw. do your own research and stuff
So In a defining clause, use the word *that* And In a essential clauses, use *which* which Is as disposable as a mask. If you are able to remove the clause without messing up the meaning of the sentence, then the clause is nonessential.
@i dont know why
yea step bro got stuck in the pile of home/school work again i think you should bust him outta there
If you copy and paste this answer onto the test, it will be marked as an honor code violation. Please don't do that.
Okay last time..

But what to do I am so stuck!!!😥😥
can they tell if you copy and paste?
they can tell what site you get it of
Diffrence of essential clause and nonessential: Essential Clause is the info in the clause necessary to the understanding of the sentince while a Nonessential clause uses commas before and after nonessential clauses that interrupt a sentince without changing the essential meaning.
Examples: An example for essential clause: The bike that my dad built looked brand new. The example for nonessential clause: The garage, that was really old, had alot of boxes.
Relitive Pronouns: When you use relative pronouns you have to use them correctly: Who relates to people (subject); Whom relates to people (whom); Which relates to animals and objects; That relates to people, animals, and things; Whose refers to possession; Where refers to place; When refers to time; Why refers to reason; What relates to things.
Am i finished?

Probably, but that's up to you to decide.
Re-read the directions in your first post and make sure.
@thehe yes, they can tell.
I need help
also don't copy... you'll vialate the honor code.
Ignore the first sentince. you must use 3-5 sentinces and explain how and when to use the relitive pronouns. Also explain the two diffrences of essential and nonessential.
sorry it took me long to respond.
Is that what you wanted???
My adhd reading these conversations: ^-^
i did twice. can u give me hints?
OH
Okay
Hey Writeacher You Don't have to be so rude You Acted like @E ended the world like omg *smh*
whoa guys chill just because she's not giving you the answers doesn't mean she's useless
WHAT DO I DO
@Mehgy Cow Hi I'm pretty sure you are in my class and I was wondering what the question is asking so can you tell me what is it asking me to do????
Thank you so much that really helped :D
bruh anyone got discord 😂😂
I fixed it again.
Writeacher is a pain
You guys need to chill- I agree writeacher could be a bit nicer but they're a real person too. Writeacher just wants you to gain knowledge insead of just cheating.
Can you post it just the answer, not the first answer?
Try looking at Unit 4, Lesson 4, Page 10 to help you answer the question on your own. Some of the answers/examples above aren't correct.
your welcome im glad that helped😄
? im sorry can you refrase it?
oh I think I get it.
Yep
I just don't understand, the way everyone is putting it... My brain just doesn't take it in the right way. I have been trying to understand how to answer this question for literally 1 hour and 50 minutes.
Either Violate the Honor Code or Make the Sentence in your own words.
First of all, the words "that" and "which" are both relative pronouns; this means, both introduce clauses that describe a noun previously mentioned. However, the pronoun "that" should be used only to introduce essential or defining clauses (information that cannot be omitted); for example "She is the woman that I love". On the other hand, the word "which" introduces information that is not essential or non-defining clauses; for example "The house, which is located near the sea, is stunning". Moreover, clauses introduced by which are set off in commas to show they are not essential.
So does the new bot just not exist in the chat room?
No it doesn't
I thought I did!
Use only one or the other:
defining & nondefining
OR
essential & nonessential
Don't mix them up!
You're still mixing up the terminology. Please read my previous post.
sooooooo rude to not help, whriteacher.
really?
your useless and we all hate you
In your paragraph, you're using two terms: "defining" and "nonessential" but their relationship to each other is not clear. Please refine your writing by using only one pair:
defining & nondefining
OR
essential & nonessential
Try again.
Writeacher: b r u h
your not even a real teacher
your such a teacher catfish omg.
