Notes
Round bracktets () have been used to indicate that a word or phrase may be omitted, or to provide explanations:
We have (very) few onions.
The girl [(who is) sitting] behind Tim is Mr Browns daughter.
He got (informal)/became (formal) angry.
In the second example, square brackets [] and round brackets have been employed to suggest that we can leave out either who is or who is sitting:
The girl who is sitting behind Tim is Mr Browns daughter.
The girl sitting behind Tim is Mr Browns daughter.
The girl behind Tim is Mr Browns daughter.
Slashes / are used to separate alternatives: He has studied/has been studying Italian since 1990.
