限定修飾的形容詞子句,若關係代名詞為主詞時,可化簡為分詞片語.法則如下:
a.刪除該關係代名詞
b.之後的動詞變成現在分詞
c若動詞為be動詞,變成現在分詞being,可將being省略
例:
The girl who danced here yesterday is my girl friend.
=The girl dancing here yesterday is my girl friend.
例2:
Who is that boy that is standing over there?
=Who is that boy standing over there?
例3:
I like the car which is parked in front of the post office.
=I like the car parked in front of the post office.

非限定修飾的形容詞子句,若關係代名詞為主詞時,不可化簡為分詞片語:
例:
I met Peter, who said that he loved Susan very much.
但
若為
who/which + be + n.
可化簡為先行詞的同位語
例1:
I met Peter, who is a good friend of mine.
=I met Peter, a good friend of mine. (形成同位語)
主詞同位語,可置於主詞前後位置
= I met,a good friend of mine, Peter.
例:
Peter, is a good friend of mine, came to see me yesterday.
=A good friend of mine, Peter came to see me yesterday.
