relative clause
Hi
I have been given these two ideas to be formed into one using relative clause.
He wants you to do something. You must do it.
Which is correct?
He wants something which you must do.
You must do the thing which he wants (you to do).
I think neither sounds natural. Please give your views

vsuresh I think neither sounds natural. Well, the second is a bit more natural, but I think what's wanted is this: You must do what he wants you to do.

Mister Micawberbut I think what's wanted is this:You must do what he wants you to do.Thank you,sir. I fully agree with you.
Some exercises in our books kill naturalness by being rigid about grammar. Here they must have a relative clause.
