I have a few questions regarding the captioned:
1) A lot depends on the way in which/that you say it.
in which = in the way you say it
that = in that? or just that? I'm confused about this one.
2) I have seen many situations where people talk ...
I can replace where with in which, right?
3) people often judge you by the way in which you stand...
Can I replace in which with 'how'? What are the other possibilities?
4) It is essential after an emotional argument to have a period in which you ...
Should I replace in which with when / where? Both seem fine.
5) similar to (3), can I replace in which with 'how'?
Many people respond negatively to the way in which people...
It seems 'how' collocates with the way in these relative clauses
If you are aware of any good websites explaining relative clauses with these abstract nouns, please recommend some.
BIG thank you!
