Relative Pronouns-Object

As we saw in the previous section, Relative Pronouns-Subject, a relative pronoun introduces an adjective clause and the pronoun can be the subject or the object of the clause. Here are some examples where the relative pronoun is the object of the clause
.The uniforms that students buy should not be expensive
antecedent
adjective clause
In the sentence above, students is the subject of the clause and buy is the verb. The relative pronoun that, with the antecedent uniforms, is the object of the verb
.The fashion magazines that students read influence their taste in clothes
antecedent
adjective clause
In the sentence above, students is the subject of the clause and read is the verb. The relative pronoun that,with the antecedent fashion magazines, is the object of the verb
The adjective clauses in both the sentences above are restrictive. They are necessary to identify the antecedent. In restrictive clauses, it is possible to omit the relative pronoun (except whose) when it is the object of the clause
.The uniforms students buy should not be expensive
antecedent
adjective clause
.The fashion magazines students read influence their taste in clothes
antecedent
adjective clause
Remember that nonrestrictive clauses provide extra information that is not necessary to identify the antecedent. Here are some examples of nonrestrictive clauses where the relative pronoun is the object of the clause
.Our director. who many people admire. agrees that uniforms are a good idea
antecedent
adjective clause
.My school uniform. which I bought last vear. still fits me
antecedent
adjective clause
Whom rather than who is considered the correct form for an object pronoun in formal, written English. In spoken English, however, and often in written English as well, who is often used as an object pronoun
