Hello! Everybody!
I am a man who is studying English for ielts test.
As the title, I have a grammatical problem on an issue as below.
Caesarean n.
an operation in which a woman's womb is cut open to allow a to be born.
It's clearly that the pronoun of this sentence is which, and my question is which is the related "verb" to the preposition "in" before the pronoun?
I really appreciate the help you would give me!
P.S. if anybody is looking for a partner to practice oral test each other, message me plz!
Actually I just got a failure on my test, so you want to reach a high score, I am afraid I can't help you :p
