#Grammar_note
π Is there a difference between Which and That?
βοΈπ― We use βthatβ when we refer to people, animals, and things. We use βwhichβ when we refer to animals and things.
If the clause is restrictive, you need to use the relative pronoun that, without it, the meaning would be unclear.
For example
βοΈ The car that he bought is very expensive.
βοΈπ― Use pronoun which when a clause is non-restrictive. Meaning that you are not being specific but instead you are adding extra information to a sentence. A comma usually accompanies this as it denotes a pause in speech and it always precedes which.
For example
βοΈ He bought a car, which is very expensive.

For example
βοΈ He bought a car, which is very expensive.
Here we are referring to him buying a car, not how expensive the car was. If we remove the clause, βwhich is very expensive,β it would have no effect on the sentence and still make sense. It serves to add further information only.

β¦οΈAttic β A room at the highest part of a house, below the roof (see below).
β¦οΈBathroom β Any room with a toilet and sink.
Itβs weird, but not all bathrooms have a place where you can take a bath! A bathroom might also be called a restroom or washroom.
β¦οΈBasement β A level below the ground level of a house.
The basement is the whole underground space. It might be one big room or a group of smaller rooms.
β¦οΈBedroom β Where the bed is, of course!
In a lot of houses, bedrooms are upstairs (on a level above the ground floor).
β¦οΈDen β A room with comfortable furniture for relaxing.
A den is like a living room (see below), but less fancy and more private.
β¦οΈDining room β The room where meals are eaten.
β¦οΈDriveway β The short βroadβ next to a house where you can park a car or drive it into the garage.
β¦οΈGarage β The building where you keep a car.

β¦οΈKitchen β The room where you store and prepare food.
β¦οΈLiving room β A living room is a room for relaxing or entertaining guests.

β¦οΈPorch β A covered
outdoor space.
A porch can be at the front, back or side of a house.
Sometimes porches will be less like open spaces and more like rooms with lots of screened windows (that let air in but keep bugs out!).
β¦οΈRoof β The covering on the top of a house.
Roofs come in different shapes and styles, but the most common kind in the U.S. and the U.K. (and a lot of other places) is a gable roof. A gable roof has two flat surfaces that tilt up and come together, making a triangle. The space under the roof in this triangle area is usually where the attic is.
Stairs/stairway β The set of steps that connect different levels of a house.
β¦οΈYard β The outdoor area at the front, back or side of a house.
In the U.K., people call a yard a garden. In the U.S., a garden is a part of a yard for growing plants, like flowers or vegetables.
