We can use "that" or omit the relative altogether , if it is the object of a verb . Ex : She is one of the kindest people ( that) i know . Is there anything (that) he wants to be served ? c/ Object of a preposition : The formal construction is preposition + which , but it is more usual to move the preposition to the end of the clause , using " which /that" or omitting the relative altogether .
