Dear all,
1. Columbus reached the land which he believed was India.
2. Columbus reached the land he believed was India.
I understand both of the sentences are correct. However, I'm not sure if they are equally acceptable or they have diferent degrees of politeness. Is there any such differences between the two?
Thank you!
