Using Which with Prepositions

 "Which" can be used after a preposition, especially in more formal writing.

  • Example: "There are several small ponds in which a variety of fish live."
  • Less formal alternative: "There are several small ponds which a variety of fish live in."
  • Example: "This is the quotation to which I was referring."
  • Less formal alternative: "This is the quotation which I was referring to."
