Five forms of "that"
Mr Sumption accepted that Mr Abramovich was privy to that corruption but submitted that the reality was that that was how business was done in Russia in those times.
The first "that" in the sentence above is a subordinator, the second one a determiner, the third a subordinator, the fourth a pronoun, the fifth a relative "that".
