A real estate agent is writing an email to her boss about a recent client tour. She writes:
"My clients loved the house, which has a swimming pool."
Based on her use of the comma before "which," what is she communicating to her boss? Select ALL the statements that apply.
The correct answers are The clients only looked at one specific house during the tour. and The fact that the house has a swimming pool is just an extra, bonus detail.
By using a comma, the agent created a non-defining (non-restrictive) relative clause. This means we already know which house she is talking about (likely because they only visited one), and the pool is just extra information. If she had left out the comma ("the house which has a swimming pool"), it would mean they visited multiple houses and she needed the pool detail to specify which house they liked.
