Trang 28 min
=> Crowed in a is an adjective , which are crowed is a
clause The clause is doing exactly the same work as the
adjective : it is describing the holiday resorts So we can
call it an adverbial clause or relative clause because it
relates to the noun , in this case , by means of the word
which relative clauses can describe persons , things and
events : Who , which and when
=> There are two kinds of relative clause in written
language
* Relative clauses without comas are called defining or
identifying clauses They provide essential information
about the subject or object
Eg : What kind of book will be popular ?
The book which contains pictures
*Relative clauses with comas are called non- defining
clauses They provide additional information , which can
be omitted
Eg: The book , which contains pictures , will be popular
