الجملة موجودة فى احد الكتب الخارجية صفحة 169

My pen friend, who lives in Sweden, is studying biology at university
Using non-defining relative clause means that the friend is known and this means that he has only one friend.
But if the sentence is written without commas like this:

My pen friend who lives in Sweden is studying biology at university
In this case the relative clause is defining and it means he has many pen friends, but here he is talking only about the Swedish one.
So the answer is: a) one pen friend

هل اذا تحدثت عن احد اصدقائي بالمراسله وقلت انه من السويد يبقي عندي صديق واحد!!
ازاي

الراجل بيقول صديقي بالمراسله الي مرمي في السويد معرفش ايه

فهل ده معناه انه عنده صديق واحد فقط فقط

عندما نقول he has got one pen friend

فإننا حينئذ نقطع كل علاقه لهذا الرجل بأي صديق مراسله اخر في اي مكان علي وجه البسيطه
فمن قال هذا ؟؟


وحضرتك قلتها بلسان حالك قائلاً

means he has many pen friends, but here he is talking only about the Swedish one.

So the answer is: a) one pen friend

فكيف ذلك؟؟

يعني هو عشان اتكلم علي واحد يبقي معندوش غير واحد

يعني انا لما اقول
my trousers,which is red,is there
هل ده معناه اني معنديش غير واحد بس ؟؟

this answer is fully right because there is difference between distinctive sentence & indistinctive sentence
