由于定语从句的结构和用法比较复杂，初学的时候在使用时很容易犯一些错误，最常见的有下列几种：
1.省略了定语从句中作主语的关系代词。如：
(1)误：The man called today left this message for you.
正：The man who(that)called today left this mes sage for you.
译：今天打电话的那个人给你留下了信息。
分析：定语从句中作主语的关系代词who或that不能省略。
(2)误：The key opens the room is missing.
正：The key which(that)opens the room is missing.
译：打开这间房门的钥匙不见了。
分析：定语从句中作主语的关系代词which或that不能省略。
2.定语从句中丢掉了谓语动词后的介词。如：
(1)误：The man(whom)he spoke made no answer.
正：The man(whom)he spoke to made no answer.
译：他谈话的那个人没有做出回答。
分析：句中spoke后应加上to，与某人谈话要用speak to somebody。
(2)误：The child she took care yesterday is her nephew.
正：The child she took care of yesterday is her nephew.
译：昨天她照顾的孩子是她的外甥。
分析：take care of是固定短语“照顾”的意思。
3.把定语从句中谓语动词的单、复数或时态弄错。如：
(1)误：This is one of the rivers in China which flows northward.
正：This is one of the rivers in China which flow northward.
译：这是中国向北流的河流之一。
分析：flows应改为flow，因为which指的是rivers，而不是one。
(2)误：The man who is driving the car was drunk.
正：The man who was driving the car was drunk.
译：开车的那个人喝醉酒了。
分析：应把is改为was，这句话中从句谓语动词应该是过去进行时态。
4.没有搞清定语从句中关系代词和关系副词的区别。如：
(1)误：This is the town which he was born.
正：This is the town where he was born.或This is the town in which he was born.
译：这是他出生的那个城镇。
分析：句中the town表示地点，在从句中充当地点状语，应该用关系副词where或in which。
(2)误：Tell me the time which the train leaves.
正：Tell me the time when the train leaves.或Tell me the time at which the train leaves.
译：告诉我火车离开的时间。
分析：句中the time表示时间，在从句中充当时间状语，应该用关系副词when或at which。
(3)误：China is a beautiful and mystical place where all of the world look forward to visiting.
正：China is a beautiful and mystical place which all of the world look forward to visiting.
译：中国是一个美丽而神奇的地方，全世界的人都盼望去看看。
分析：句中place在从句中作visiting的宾语，应该用关系代词which。
(4)误：I will never forget the days when we spent together.
正：I will never forget the days which we spent together.
译：我决不会忘记我们曾共同度过的日子。
分析：句中the days在从句中作spent的宾语，所以应该用关系代词which。
5.定语从句中使用了多余的宾语。如：
误：Some of the boys I invited them didn' t come.
正：Some of the boys(whom)I invited didn' t come.
译：我邀请的男孩中有几个没有来。
分析：应删去them，因为从句中的宾语是省略了的关系代词whom，who或that。
6.非限制性定语从句中使用了关系代词that，如：
误：Mr.Smith,that I met just now,is my nieghbor.
正：Mr.Smith,whom I met just now,is my neighbor.
译：我刚才见到的史密斯先生是我的邻居。
分析：这是一个非限制性定语从句，即使去掉也不会影响整句话的意思，关系代词只能用whom，而且不能省略。
7.定语从句中由于先行词的特殊而易出现的错误。如：
(1)误：This is all which I want to say.
正：This is all that I want to say.
译：这是我想说的一切。
分析：当定语从句的先行词是all,little,any thing,nothing,everything,much,the one等词或被这些不定代词、最高级形容词、序数词及the only,the very,justthe等修饰时，只能用关系代词that。
(2)误：He often talks about the things and persons which he met in North America.
正：He often talks about the things and persons that he met in North America.
译：他经常谈论那些他在北美遇到的人和事。
分析：当先行词既有人也有物时，用which或who都不合适，只能用关系代词that。
