2.4.4 Nominal relative clause

To further explain a noun, nominal relative clause functions as appositive

Ex: It is a time - when wars should cease.

Đã đến lúc chiến tranh nên chấm dứt.

Ex: I don‘t like that boy - who I met yesterday.

Tôi không ưa thằng bé tôi đã gặp sáng nay.

Nominal relative clause functions as relative clause and modifies for noun

before it. Writers don‘t translate directly the meaning of wh-words because the

noun before it brings the meaning of it.
