Drag each restrictive or nonrestrictive element into the correct category My uncle, a talented painter, is coming to visit tomorrow. He will stay in the room at the top of the stairs. My mom, who is very excited, is throwing a party in his honor. She will serve the cookies that I baked today.

I looked this question up and found that the underlined elements are:

a talented painter

at the top of the stairs

who is very excited

that I baked today

Nonrestrictive:

a talented painter

who is very excited

Restrictive:

at the top of the stairs

that I baked today

Explanation:

The elements that are placed between commas are nonrestrictive. They are not essential for the speaker to express meaning in the sentence. If removed, they would technically not make that much of a difference, the most important part of the message being conveyed anyway.

On the other hand, restrictive elements are not placed between commas. They are essential for the meaning of the sentence to be complete. For instance, in the sentence "He will stay in the room at the top of the stairs," the restrictive element determines which room the uncle will be staying in. If we remove it, the sentence could refer to any room.
