Hello everyone,
I am getting quite desperate here, and am seeking a reaching hand.
I have been trying to standardize the that's and which's in my writings (locale: British English).
However, reading about types of clauses too much, and fatigue settling in, I am left confused.
Just to be sure, is it okay to replace 'that' by 'which' in all the following sentences? (UK)
(1)
