- If the relative pronoun is followed by a verb, it is a subject pronoun. You cannot omit it. - Example: The actor who won the Oscar was very famous.
- You can omit object pronouns. - Example: The people (who / that / whom) I met this morning are very friendly.
- In informal speech, when the verb in the relative clause needs a preposition, we can omit the relative pronoun, and we put the preposition at the end of the relative clause. - Example: The restaurant I was talking about is the one we went to last night.
