relative pronoun VS participle
0 Hi Teachers 02 br
02 br
00 1. I'd like to know that, is the use of "who,which,that"(relative pronoun) interchangeably with participle (both past and present) for Objective pronouns for every instance? 02 br
00 2. Any difference in meaning? And How do we know when to use which one appropriately? 02 br
00 I.e :- I like to hear people 01 u 00 saying good news 02 u 00 VS I like to hear people 01 u 00 who say good news 02 u 02 br
00 - I saw a man 01 u 00 kicked/being kicked 02 u 00 by a horse VS I saw a man 01 u 00 who was kicked 02 u 00 by a horse 02 br
00 - I am going to make him saying horrible story VS I am going to make him who says horrible story (doesn't sound right) 02 br
00 - Who is the man speaking on the stage? VS Who is the man who speaks on the stage? 02 br
00 and there are many more sentences like these 02 br
