"...which..." "...that..." Thank you.

Often it is the order of words which indicates which way a sentence is being used.

I understand that the two sentences mean the same thing but I was wonder what are the possible differences between them.

Thank you in advance.

Best wishes,

Hi PBF,
I would only use the version with "that". Anyway, reading those two sentences, I can't think of any difference between them (apart form the fact that I don't like that "which".)

Just my quick opinion

Yeah, I reckon these sentences have similar meaning. But there is the difference between 'which' and 'that' generally. Which can be used always whereas that can't be used with commas.

that is almost always the choice in a cleft sentence structure such as this.

It is ... that ...
