d. In this context, "what" stands for "that which". (It does that a lot).

  • d.
  • In this context, "what" stands for "that which".
  • (It does that a lot).
  • So you end up with two complete clauses: (What I don't understand is THAT) and (WHICH he said about our plans to expand next year).
  • Obviously the THAT and the WHICH are closely tied together, as they both refer to the same object.
