A Heated Debate

Review Summary

  • Det + er/var + [Emphasis] + som + [Rest of sentence]

よくある間違い

You cannot omit the emphasized element. The focus must appear between 'er' and 'som'.

Wrong: Det er som han sa det.
正解: Det er han som sa det.

Ensure the relative clause has a complete structure. You cannot leave the object hanging if the verb requires one.

Wrong: Det er han som sa.
正解: Det er han som sa det.

While 'at' is common in some dialects, 'som' is the grammatically preferred relative pronoun in formal cleft constructions.

Wrong: Det var i går at jeg dro.
正解: Det var i går som jeg dro.
