Relative Clauses Without Relative Pronouns

Sometimes, we can leave out the relative pronoun in relative clauses. Let's look at some examples...

Illustrative background for 2) The city he lives inIllustrative background for 2) The city he lives in ?? "content

2) The city he lives in

  • We can leave out the relative pronoun 'that' and the sentence still makes sense.
Illustrative background for 2) The girl has pigtailsIllustrative background for 2) The girl has pigtails ?? "content
