*** the omission of relative pronouns.
Omission of relative pronouns:
Notice: We can leave out the pronoun when it is not the subject of the relative clause. Clause without pronouns are very common in informal English.
Ex: The meeting was interesting. I went to it yesterday.
The meeting which I went to yesterday was interesting.
 The meeting I went to yesterday was interesting.
