Default Re: relative pronouns

Hello...
I want a man who has a good sense of humour.
As you said, "I" is the subject of the matrix clause and "man: is the Object.
In that sentence you can not ommit the relative pronoun who because it is subject of the subordinate relative clause /
You can use "that" instead of who but you need a relative pronoun there for sure.
Hope this help/
