When to use which vs that in a sentence?
When to use which vs that in a sentence?
Which vs. That: How to Choose
- In a defining clause, use that.
- In non-defining clauses, use which.
- Remember, which is as disposable as a sandwich bag. If you can remove the clause without destroying the meaning of the sentence, the clause is nonessential and you can use which.
What is the difference between the use of which and that?
“That” is used to indicate a specific object, item, person, condition, etc., while “which” is used to add information to objects, items, people, situations, etc. Because “which” indicates a non-restrictive (optional) clause, it is usually set off by commas before “which” and at the end of the clause.
When should I use that in a sentence?
Often a sentence with two parallel clauses requires the expression “and that” to introduce the second clause and link it to the antecedent common to both clauses: The senator said he might run again and, if he did, Myra Henry would be his campaign manager. A “that” is needed after “and” to make it clear for the reader.
How do you avoid in a sentence?
Replacing “of which” with a separate sentence. Another way to avoid guessing how to use “of which” in a sentence is to simply split the relative clause into its own sentence. However, this technique can look awkward, especially if overused.
