dear experts,
would you please clarify that pronoun in modifier is always incorrect?
for example:
The book that I read it yesterday was exciting-- pronoun "it" is redundant, because that stands for "the book", it stands for "the" book as well, -- incorrect
is the following sentence correct?
IMO , it is correct, but I am not sure, so I desire your confirmation
Nobody knows exactly how many languages there are in the world, but those who try to count them have found about five thousand.
in this sentence, second clause's subject is those, modifier is who try to count them, and there is no any redundant in the second clause, so IMO, pronoun them is correct.
please confirm.
so silly question,
thanks for your patient.
have a nice day
