ADVERBS FOR RELATIVE PRONOUNS

Specialty Definition: ADVERBS FOR RELATIVE PRONOUNS

DomainDefinition

Tips from 1870

Usage: Adverbs for Relative Pronouns. Adverbs are often employed where a preposition with a relative pronoun would better express the sense.
"There is no method known how his safety may be assured." Use by which instead of how.
"He wrote me a letter where he repeated his instructions." "Letter in which he repeated," etc.
"And curse the country where their fathers dwelt." "In which their fathers dwelt."
"This is a case where large interests are involved." The preposition and relative will better express the meaning; as, "This is a case in which large interests are involved." Source: Slips of Speech.
