Grammar
of which/On which/for which
Under what circumstances do we use: 'of which', 'on which' and 'for which'?
I would appreciate it if you would kindly give me some examples. Thank you!
As for 'in which', is it the same as 'where'? e.g.
This is the house in which the prisoner has been hiding for years.
This is the house where the prisoner has been hiding for years.

The problem with studying foreign language is that one doesn't have the opportunity to speak and to to listen to it everyday. The more I analyze the grammar and the structure, the more bemuddled I become.
