Why can omit 'who' after insertion clause?
When I study English, I found some ungrammatical sentence. "I picked up a man I thought was honest"
And "He is not the man he was"and so on.
I think the following sentence is right .
"I picked up a man who I thought was honest"
"He is not the man that he was"
As far as I know, who and that can't omit.
I wonder how who and that can omit.
I will waiting reply.
Help me, please.
