relative clause
The man standing over there is my classmate.Do you know him?
( using relative clause to rewrite)
The answer is
1. Do you know the man standing over there who is my classmate?
2. Do you know the man standing over there, who is my classmate?
To me, the sentence 2 is right but someone say the first sentence is the answer. Please help me with this! Thank you very much.
