Quick explain
- • who voor personen, which voor dingen, that voor beide (in defining clauses).
- • whose = van wie, where = waar, when = wanneer.
- • Non-defining clauses geven extra informatie tussen komma's en gebruiken nooit that.
the boy who … | the film which/that … | Amsterdam, which …
Examples
- The girl who sits next to me is called Lotte.
- The film that we saw was brilliant.
- My uncle, who lives in Spain, is a chef.
- That's the house where I was born.
- She's the artist whose songs I love.
Dutch alert
The man what helped me was kind.
The man who helped me was kind.
Gebruik who of that, nooit what.
The book, that I read, was long.
The book that I read was long.
That gebruik je niet in een clause tussen komma's.
