14. Differences : Defining or Non-defining DEFINING RELATIVE CLAUSES They give relevant and important information to complete the meaning of the main clause. When the relative pronoun is the object or goes with a preposition, it can be omitted. We don´t use the commas to separate the relative clause. NON-DEFINIG RELATIVE CLAUSES They give extra information but not essential to understand the meaning of the main clause. They go between commas. The relative pronouns are never omitted. That is never used with the non-defining relative clauses.
