Attributive Clause定语从句

一、定义

定语从句：修饰名词或代词的从句。换句话说，名词、代词后的从句叫定语从句。

先行词：被定语从句修饰的名词、代词、甚至词组或句子叫先行词。

关系词：引导定语从句的词叫关系词。

1关系代词：在定语从句中担任主、宾、表、定语成分

2关系副词：在定语从句中担任状语成分

关系词3个功能：

1. 连接功能（连接先行词与定语从句）；

2. 担任功能（在定语从句中担任主、宾、表、定、状语）；

3. 替代功能（在定语从句中代替先行词）。

关系代词在定语从句中充当

主语的是： who, that, which, as

宾语的是： who, whom, that, which, as

定语的是： whose, which

先行词是人时，关系代词是：who, whom, that, as

先行词是物时，关系代词是：which, that, whose, as

关系副词有：when (先行词为时间), where (先行词为地点), why (先行词为原因)

关系副词 = 介词 + which / whom

定语从句分为两种：限制性与非限制性。先行词与关系词之间无逗号隔开为限制性；有逗号隔开则为非限制性，且一般由which引导。

唯一可以置于先行词之前的定语从句由关系代词as 引导。

二、关系代词引导的定语从句

(1) This is the watch which/that I am looking for. (T)

(2) This is the watch for which I am looking. (F)

2. 若介词放在关系代词前，关系代词指人时用whom，不可用who或者that；指物时用which，不能用that；关系代词是所有格时用whose

(1) The man with whom you talked is my friend. (T)

(2) The man who/that you talked with is my friend. (F)
