Question

Which is the relative clause in the passage?
Kanchenjunga

Measuring 28,169 feet high, Kanchenjunga is the third-tallest mountain in the world. It lies in the eastern Himalayas on the border between Sikkim, India and eastern Nepal. The word "Kanchenjunga" is derived from the Tibetan language, and it means "five treasures of the great snow," which refers to the five peaks of the mountain. Four glaciers that feed important rivers in the region originate from the mountain. Kanchenjunga holds an important place in the culture and history of the local people.

Answer 1

There are two relative clauses in the passage:

- "which refers to the five peaks of the mountain." — a non-defining relative clause modifying "five treasures of the great snow."
- "that feed important rivers in the region" — a defining relative clause modifying "Four glaciers."
