forget the
day
(when)
we
first
met.
I
remember
the
morning
(when)
he
first
came
to
school.
The
reason
(why)
he
came

early
is
his
own
affair.
也可用介词后置的方法代替
where

room
he
worked
in now is kept

good
repair.
那房间,他在那里工作,已经修葺一新!
Do
you
happen
to
know
anybody

the
university

如果

那么关系分句的句末介词也可省略:

the
place
he
stayed
when
he
was

London.
上述用法也适用于表示方式的
way
结构。在正式语体中
way
作先行项的限制性关系分句通常用 in which。
但在非正式语体中,
通常说
The
way
you
answered
the
questions
was
admirable.
说明:
@表示时间的先行项除
time
外,也可以是
day, morning.
afternoon,
evening,
night,
week,
month,
year等。
@表示地点的先行项除
place
也可以是
desk, table,
spot,
room,
house
.
school.
street,
town,
country
等。
@表示理由的先行项只有
reason
一个词
@在英语中不能用
how
引导以
the
way
为先行项的限制性或非限制性关系分句, 比如通常不说
That
is
the
way
how
he spoke.
但可以说: That
is
how
he
spoke
在这里,
how
he
spoke
是名词性分句。
