ĐỊNH NGHĨA: Đại từ liên hệ dùng để thay thế cho danh từ đứng trước nó, nó giới thiệu một mệnh đề phụ nhằm làm rõ nghĩa cho danh từ mà đại từ liên hệ thay thế, mệnh đề này gọi là mệnh đề liên hệ. B. CÁCH DÙNG: 1. Who: thay thế cho một danh từ chỉ người làm chủ ngữ..

<span class='text_page_counter'>(20)</span> Eg: This is the man who helped me yesterday. The boy who studies the best in this class is my son. 2. Whom: thay thế cho một danh từ chỉ người làm tân ngữ. Eg: The man whom you met yesterday is my uncle. 3. Whose: thay thế cho một danh từ chỉ người làm sỡ hữu. Eg: The woman whose son is my friend is a good doctor. 4. Which: thay thế cho một danh từ chỉ vật làm chủ ngữ hoặc tân ngữ. Eg: The house which has green door is mine. The car which you have just bought is new and comfortable. 5. Where: thay thế cho một danh từ chỉ nơi chốn. Eg: This is the place where I was born and grew up. 6. When: thay thế cho một danh từ chỉ thời gian. Eg: The day when you came was on Sunday. 7. That: thay thế cho WHO, WHICH trong mệnh đề hạn định: mệnh đề không có dấu phẫy. Eg: This is the man who wrote this novel = This is the man that wrote this novel. This is the house which I bought last year = This is the house that I bought last year. 8. Of which: Thay thế cho danh từ chỉ vật làm sỡ hữu. Eg: The book of which cover is red is interesting. C. RESTRICTIVE AND NON-RESTRICTIVE RELATIVE CLAUSE: 1. Restrictive Relative clauses: (Mệnh đề quan hệ giới hạn- mệnh đề hạn định) Mệnh đề quan hệ giới hạn dùng để bổ nghĩa cho danh từ đứng trước, là một bộ phận quan trọng trong câu. Nếu bỏ nó đi, mệnh đề chính sẽ không được xác định và không có nghĩa rõ ràng. Eg: The book which I borrowed from you is very interesting. Mệnh đề “ which I borrowed from you” là mệnh đề quan hệ giới hạn, bổ nghĩa cho danh từ “the book”. Nó rất cần thiết trong câu vì nếu bỏ nó đi ta sẽ không biết quyển sách nào sẽ được nói đến. Eg: The girl who came here yesterday is my cousin. We will never forget the day when we first came to London. This is the place where I was born. 2. Non- restrictive Relative clauses: (Mệnh đề quan hệ không giới hạn- mệnh đề không hạn định): Mệnh đề không hạn định còn gọi là mệnh đề quan hệ giải thích, dùng để bổ nghĩa cho danh từ đứng trước, là phần giải thích thêm. Nếu bỏ nó đi, mệnh đề chính vẫn có ý nghĩa rõ ràng. Danh đề đứng trước mệnh đề này thường đã được xác định rồi. Eg: My father, who is fifty-five years old, is an engineer. Miss White, whom we studied English with, is a very nice teacher. I want to help Peter, whose parents died in the accident. He often comes to visit Nha Trang, where he grew up. * Note: Một số điểm cần lưu ý khi dùng mệnh đề không hạn định: 1. Mệnh đề không hạn định thường được tách khỏi mệnh đề chíng bằng dấu phẩy hoặc dấu gạch ngang. 2. Đại từ quan hệ THAT không được dùng trong loại mệnh đề này. 3. Không lượt bỏ đại từ quan hệ (Who/ Whom/ which) trong mệnh đề này. D. CÁCH NỐI HAI CÂU ĐƠN THAØNH MỘT CÂU PHỨC BẰNG CÁCH DÙNG CÁC ĐẠI TỪ LIÊN HỆ: 1.
