[before 900; Middle English; Old English thæt (pronoun, adj., adv. and conjunction), orig., neuter of sē the, c. Old Frisian thet, Old Saxon, Old Norse that, Old High German daz, Greek tó, Skt tad] usage: When that introduces a relative clause, the clause is usu. restrictive, that is, essential to the complete meaning of the sentence. In The keys that I lost last month have been found, the keys referred to are a particular set. Without the that clause, the sentence The keys have been found would be vague and probably puzzling. that is used to refer to animate and inanimate nouns and thus can substitute in most uses for who(m) and which: Many of the workers that (or who) built the pyramids died while working. The negotiator made an offer that (or which) was very attractive to the union.―The relative pronoun that is sometimes omitted. Its omission as a subject is usu. considered nonstandard, but the construction is heard occasionally even from educated speakers: A fellow (that) lives near here takes people rafting. Most often it is as an object that the relative pronoun is omitted. The omission almost always occurs when the dependent clause begins with a personal pronoun or a proper name; the usage in the following examples is standard in all varieties of speech and writing: The mechanic (that) we take our car to is very reliable. The films (that) Chaplin made have become classics.―The conjunction that is sometimes omitted, often after verbs of thinking, saying, believing, etc.: She said (that) they would come in separate cars. This omission almost always occurs when the dependent clause begins with a personal pronoun or a proper name and is most frequent in informal speech and writing.
