Grammar
a short one
Let's have a look at the following setnences :
1) The village in which he lives is a beauty-spot.
2) The village he lives in is a beauty-spot. (no "which" here)
I was wondering whether another option would be possible :
3) The village which he lives in is a beauty-spot.
and what about this one :
The house in which we were staying... / The house we were staying in... / The house WHICH (?) we were staying in...
best wishes,
1) The village in which he lives is a beauty-spot.

thanks ! :-)
another thing has come to my mind... another question about "that vs which";
in most cases "which" and "that" are used interchangeably... can anyone tell me when I HAVE to use only "which" and "only" that ? in other words - I need some examples (or rules) telling me in which situations I cannot use "which" and "that" interchangeably...
