1. This is the hospital where I was born.

2. This is the hospital which I was born in.

3. This is the hospital in which I was born.


The above three sentences are all grammatical - as I know.

4. This is the hospital that I was born.

5. This is the hospital that I was born in.

6.This is the hospital I was born.

7. This is the hospital I was born in.


I wonder if all of the sentences from 4 to 7 are also grammatically correct.


Thank you so much in advance.

#5 and #7 are OK. The others are not.

Re: Relative Adverb 'where'

Why was your thread title about the relative adverb "where"? Were you simply trying to find other words to use instead of "where"?
