Otherwise, do not use the possessive form of the word 1xbet online casino of: The friends of John Adams mourned his death. (All the friends were involved.) He is a friend of the college. (Not college's, because college is inanimate.)

1xbet online casino :

There is no blanket rule against creating a possessive form for an inanimate object, particularly if the object is treated in a personified sense. See some of the earlier 1xbet online casino , and note these: death's call, the wind's murmur.

In general, however, avoid excessive personalization of inanimate objects, and give preference to an of construction 1xbet online casino it fits the makeup of the sentence. For example, the earlier references to mathematics' rules and measles' effects would better be phrased: the rules of mathematics, the effects of measles.

Use that and which in referring to inanimate objects and to animals without a 1xbet online casino .

Use that for essential clauses, important to the meaning of a sentence, and without 1xbet online casino : I remember the day that we met.

Use which for nonessential clauses, where the clause is less necessary, and use 1xbet online casino : The team, which finished last a year ago, is in first place.

Tip: If 1xbet online casino can drop the clause and not lose the meaning of the sentence, use which; 1xbet online casino , use that. A which clause is surrounded by 1xbet online casino ; no 1xbet online casino are used with that clauses.
