Hi there!
In cleft sencences, We use It....... that..... to focus on one part of the sentence. I wonder if we can use where, when, or which... instead of that in the following sentences:
It was in Bristol that/ where the film was made.
It was in 1492 that/ when Columbus sailed to America.
It is the statistics exam that/ which I �m most worried about.
So please help me. Thank you in advance. |

No, you need "that" for all three sentences.

As I found in many grammar books, who, whom and that are used. In some exercises, the same structure with where, when, which, why is considered to be incorrect. Yet, still some teachers use where, when, which, why to replace that. That �s why I feel so embarrassed. |
