AND WITH THE RELATIVE

Common Stumbling Blocks - Peculiar Constructions - Misused Forms. Never use and with the relative in this manner: "That is the dog I meant and which I know is of pure breed." This is an error quite common. The use of and is permissible when there is a parallel relative in the preceding sentence or clause. Thus: "There is the dog which I meant and which I know is of pure breed" is quite correct. Next: LOOSE PARTICIPLES Previous: OTHER AND ANOTHER Report Privacy SHARE BOOKMARK
