関係代名詞の種類
先行詞の種類 主格 目的格 所有格
who who[whom] whose
もの・動物 which
人・もの・動物 that

目的格whomはほとんど用いられない。また、目的格の関係代名詞は省略されることが多い。

 

主格の関係代名詞

I have an aunt who / that sings and dances very well.

 

先行詞が「もの・動物」<主格>の時は which/that

A giraffe is a tall animal which / that has a long neck.

I can’t believe what you did to her.

I’m sorry, but what I said yesterday was a lie.

 

制限用法と非制限用法

関係代名詞には、これまで学習してきた後から前の名詞(先行詞)を修飾する制限用法(または限定用法)の他に、非制限用法(または継続用法)があります。非制限用法には2つの特徴があります。

1、先行詞の後にコンマ(,)がある。

2、日本語に直す時には、まず先行詞を訳し、関係代名詞以下の文はその先行詞の補足説明のように訳す。

Mr. Long has two sons, who are lawyers.(2人の息子がいて、2人とも弁護士だ)

Mr. Long has two sons who are lawyers.(制限用法にすると、関係詞節が先行詞を直接修飾することで、先行詞の対象を絞り込み、「ロングさんには弁護士の息子が2人いる」という意味になり、別の息子もいる可能性がある)

He has two watches which his father gave him.(彼は父親からもらった2つの時計を持っている)

制限用法では、先行詞の two watches が関係詞節によって直接修飾され、「父親からもらった」という内容に限定されています。この場合、「彼」は父親からもらっていない別の時計も持っている可能性があります。

He has two watcheswhich his father gave him.(彼は2つの時計を持っていて、それらは父親からもらったものだ)
一方、非制限用法では、コンマの前で「彼は2つの時計を持っている」という内容が完結しています。(つまり時計はこの2つしか持っていないことになります。)関係詞節は先行詞の two watches を直接修飾するのではなく、先行詞について補足的に説明しています。

 

 

関係副詞

関係副詞は副詞の役目をもちながら名詞(先行詞)を説明する節を導く語です。

Take me to the store where you bought this CD.

Do you remember the day when we first met?

関係副詞は4つ(場所 where, 時 when, 理由 why, 方法 how)ある。どの関係副詞を使うかは、先行詞により決定される。

 

関係代名詞と関係副詞

This is the park which is famous for its big cherry trees.

This is the park where we used to play soccer every day.

関係詞の部分にit(代名詞)がくれば which, there(副詞)がくれば where を使う。

 

先行詞・関係副詞の省略

Home is the place where I spend most of my time.

Home is where I spend most of my time. ← 先行詞 the place の省略

Home is the place I spend most of my time at. ← 関係代名詞 which の省略

 

Do you remember the time when we’re going to meet up?

Do you remember the time we’re going to meet up? ← when の省略

Do you remember when we’re going to meet up? ← the time の省略

 

関係副詞の非限定用法

I went to Hawaii, where I enjoyed watching beautiful sunsets.

普通固有名詞の後には制限用法は用いない。

普通例文:I went to Hawaii and there I enjoyed watching beautiful sunsets.

 

Hokkaido, where I have never been, is famous for its unspoiled nature.

仮定法

If Bill comes, I will be happy.(ビルが来てくれたら嬉しいわ)

If Bill came, I would be happy.(もしビルが来てくれたら嬉しいのに)← 仮定法

仮定法は「まずあり得ない」夢の世界を描く!

仮定法は現在のことをあえて過去形で表現して、現実とちょっと「距離をおく」気持ちを表すのです。

 

仮定法過去

If + 主語 + 動詞の過去形 〜, 主語 + would / could / should / might + 動詞の原形 ・・・

If you leave home now, you will be in time for the train.(今家を出ればその電車に間に合うだろう ← 普通の文、これは今家を出ようとする人に言うもの)

 

仮定法過去完了

過去の事実に反する仮定には過去完了形を用います。

If + 主語 + had + 過去分詞 〜, 主語 + would / could / should / might + have + 過去分詞 ・・・

Takeda Shingen might have become shogun if he had lived longer.

If I had studied hard, I could have passed the exam.

 

仮定法が使われる表現

1、<I wish + 仮定法> 〜ならなあ / 〜だったらなあ

as if + 主語 + 過去形 〜 (仮定法過去)「まるで〜であるかのように」

as if + 主語 + had 過去分詞 〜 (仮定法過去完了)「まるで〜であったかのように」

また、これらの表現は時制の一致を受けない。
