注意事項

• where ＝ in／at which，when ＝ on／in which。
  where = in / at which; when = on / in which.
• 子句缺受詞時用 which／that，不用 where：the city (that) I visited。
  If the clause lacks an object, use which / that, not where: the city (that) I visited.

常見錯誤

• ✗ This is the park where I like.
  ✓ This is the park (that) I like.
  like 缺受詞，要用 that／which。
  like needs an object: use that / which.
• ✗ I remember the year which we moved here.
  ✓ I remember the year when we moved here.
  子句完整、說時間，用 when。
  The clause is complete and it's a time: when.
