As a result, language that we use to convey those is also not simple. Very often, while communicating we want to express ourselves as clear as possible so we determinate what are we actually talking about. Relative Clauses enable the speaker to be more specific and add additional information about the referent, in writing they make writing more sophisticated. The topic (sample nursing essay examples by the best nursing assignment writing service) of this paper is going to be, precisely that \u2013 Relative Clauses and it is going to be divided into three parts.<\/p>\n<p>The first part of this paper, and the starting point of this work, is going to be focused on English Relative Clauses. Furthermore, their form and function in English language.<\/p>\n<p>The second part of the paper is going to present all these elements (structure and function) of Relative Clauses in Albanian Language.<\/p>\n<p>The third part of the paper will be focused on the comparing and contrasting Relative Clauses in English and Albanian. This is going to be realized by constantly extracting examples from the well known novel written by James Joyce, \u201cUlysses\u201d, in English and the translated form of the same in Albanian by idler Azizi.<\/p>\n<p>The last part of the paper will be recapitulation of all the previous mentioned elements and we will drown the conclusion based on the work and sentences given within the paper. The conclusion will finally provide us with the actual results upon the assumption that Relative clauses in English and Albanian should have certain elements in common and therefore contain, to certain extent, similarities. On the other hand this paper will also represent the differences that Relative clauses in both languages might have.<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of this paper is to reflect upon the Relative Clauses which are used widely in everyday language. It is focused on Albanian and English language so the readers can, at least, by the examples used, have a clear picture of the issue.<\/p>\n<p>Readers, whether they are students of English language or Albanian or even those that languages are not their field of study, are left to judge how helpful this paper will be to them. Hopefully, it is going to serve its purpose and at least, be a small guide into the wide scope of language.<\/p>\n<h2>RELATIVE CLAUSES IN ENGLISH<\/h2>\n<p>In English Grammar books and other resources (electronic ones), that are the point of reference in this description, Relative Clauses are treated under the umbrella of Noun Modifiers, as a subordinate clause. We will firstly start from the definition of the Relative Clause as the starting point of our further analysis. Afterwards, after proving the definition through examples we are going to prove the correctness of the definitions and furthermore construct our own examples in order to insure that the form has been understood appropriately.<\/p>\n<p>The source grammar books of this paper are: English Grammar, Morphology written by Prof. Dr. Jashar Kabashi\u00a0<span class=\"essay_footnotecitation\">[<a class=\"essay_footnotecitation_link\" href=\"#ftn1\" name=\"bodyftn1\">1<\/a>]<\/span>\u00a0, English Syntax by Prof. Dr. Vesel Nuhiu\u00a0<span class=\"essay_footnotecitation\">[<a class=\"essay_footnotecitation_link\" href=\"#ftn2\" name=\"bodyftn2\">2<\/a>]<\/span>\u00a0, A Student\u2019s Grammar of the English Language by Sidney Greenbaum and Randolph Quirk\u00a0<span class=\"essay_footnotecitation\">[<a class=\"essay_footnotecitation_link\" href=\"#ftn3\" name=\"bodyftn3\">3<\/a>]<\/span>\u00a0, The Grammar Book by Marianne Celce-Murcia and Diane Larsen-Freeman\u00a0<span class=\"essay_footnotecitation\">[<a class=\"essay_footnotecitation_link\" href=\"#ftn4\" name=\"bodyftn4\">4<\/a>]<\/span>\u00a0, English Grammar in Use written by: Raymond Murphy\u00a0<span class=\"essay_footnotecitation\">[<a class=\"essay_footnotecitation_link\" href=\"#ftn5\" name=\"bodyftn5\">5<\/a>]<\/span>\u00a0, Headway, written by Liz and John Soars and A Comprehensive Handbook of English Grammar written by Prof. Dr. Shykrane G\u00ebrmizaj.\u00a0<span class=\"essay_footnotecitation\">[<a class=\"essay_footnotecitation_link\" href=\"#ftn6\" name=\"bodyftn6\">6<\/a>]<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The electronic sources used for this paper is: Wikipedia (the electronic encyclopedia)\u00a0<span class=\"essay_footnotecitation\">[<a class=\"essay_footnotecitation_link\" href=\"#ftn7\" name=\"bodyftn7\">7<\/a>]<\/span>\u00a0and<\/p>\n<p>The analysis made by HUNTER COLLEGE published on their web page: rwc.hunter.cuny.edu\u00a0<span class=\"essay_footnotecitation\">[<a class=\"essay_footnotecitation_link\" href=\"#ftn8\" name=\"bodyftn8\">8<\/a>]<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A relative clause (in some grammar books referred as *nominal relative clause) is a subordinate clause that modifies a noun phrase, most commonly a noun.
