Hi,
Question:
is it possible to "reduce" the Non-Defining Relative Clauses?
The following sentence is found from a newspaper.
I guess the original sentence is :
The worst case scenario would see cuts totalling £33m during the next year, which means more than 700 jobs would be lost.
Sentence from newspaper:
The worst case scenario would see cuts totalling £33m during the next year, meaning more than 700 jobs would be lost.
so, the writer reduced which means to meaning
agree?
thanks
