So a defining clause is essential to the sense of the sentence and is not bracketed by commas?

That's it exactly Ronbee .... it gets a bit more complicated, but that's the basis.

Re: hello

A defining clause is a relative clause that is essential to the sense of the sentence. Unlike a nondefining clause (not essential), it is not bracketed by commas.
