آرتين لتعليم اللغات :: The Use Of Where, Why And When

اقتباس:

In formal English prepositions can come before the relative pronoun. However, it much more common to place prepositions at the end of the relative clause, especially in informal spoken English.

For Example : That is the man to whom I spoke

Note : A preposition is not immediately followed by "that" or "who" UNLIKE "whom" or "which"

سحر,

Where, referring to a place, why, referring to a reason, and when, referring to a time, can be used instead of a relative pronoun after a noun. In defining relative clauses why and when, unlike where can be omitted. Example: I'd like to know the reason (why) he decided not to come. February is the month (when) many of my colleagues take skiing holidays. BUT! She always had wanted to go to a place where she could speak her native tongue. When, where and why are not omitted in non-defining relative clauses. Example: I come from the Seattle area, where many successful companies such as Microsoft and Boeing are located, and I often go home during the summer. He likes shopping between one and three, when most people are at home, because of the relative calm. NOTES: When speaking, we often omit the relative pronoun. Whom is formal and most often used when writing. Relative clauses and prepositions In formal English prepositions can come before the relative pronoun. However, it much more common to place prepositions at the end of the relative clause, especially in informal spoken English. Example: John Robbins, whom I spoke to by telephone, instructed me to buy 200 shares of WAKO. Formal The Ritz, which was stayed at in New York, was extremely expensive.
