Short answer: The pronoun "that" precedes details about the noun that are essential, while the pronoun "which" precedes those that are non-essential or can be eliminated without changing the meaning of the sentence.

Explanation:

In grammar, the function of "which" and "that" is to precede or introduce clauses, especially those that provide information about the noun. Additionally, these two words differ slightly on their function because they introduce specific types of clauses.

Indeed, the use of "that" shows the information introduced is essential or cannot be eliminated as in the sentence "My sister that is living in Europe get married" because the detail "is living in Europe" is essential to define "My sister". This does not occur with "which" because this precedes information that can be eliminated or it is not essential as in "My car, which is brand-new, just broke down" because in this sentence the key information is that the car broke down.

How is your topic interesting?
lilavasa [31]
Hi! I’m not exactly sure of the topic you are referring to... but if it’s just about anything, you can make it sound interesting. I’ll give this my best shot. Here we go... stick with me:

Here are some key points to take whatever topic you are thinking of and make it interesting:

• enthusiasm- speak with enthusiasm about this topic. If you’re writing, add exclamation.

• language- use proper wording. For example: a salesman wouldn’t just say: “this product is cool.”
That isn’t persuasive or interesting about the product. That is simply stating his opinion. He could rather say: “this product is made for really everyone! It has complex features and works for all ages.” Therefore, I didn’t mention a product, but it definitely sounds better than just using the basic language.

• facts- when you are talking or even writing about something... you need facts. As I stated in the previous point, when the salesman stated his opinion, it wasn’t as persuasive or nearly as informative as the product with facts was. Knowing about your topic just as a salesman would know his product, will only benefit you in answering the question of how your topic would be interesting.

These were my key points I wanted to highlight and I believe that if you incorporate these points into your answer for the question you asked, it will be of success.

Happy studying! If you have further concerns, just post em in chat. I love to help.

Exercise 1 Circle the participle or participial phrase in each sentence.
Paladinen [302]

The participle or participial phrase in each sentence is " Being a "and "tried out".

<h3>What is participial phrase?</h3>

Participle phrases are composed of a participle, a modifier, and a pronoun or a noun phrase. The Pronoun/Noun in the phrase will take on the role of the action's recipient. A comma is required after a participial phrase if it comes at the start of a sentence and the next phrase is a full sentence.

A phrase beginning with a participle will be a present or past participle. The sentence will invariably conclude in ing if the participle is present. Similar to how a regular past participle will end in a regular ed. Unfortunately, irregular past participles can end in a variety of different ways.

A present participle phrase is a sentence fragment that modifies a noun and starts with a present participle.
