Could someone tell me how to use ‘that which’ together in a sentence? [closed]

Solution 1:

Some prose is bad but that which I read in this question and your additional comment is simply awful. The prose is not a model for anyone's style. Grammar is wrong, concepts are vague, clauses are pretentious and almost meaningless. Do you have a better example of the use of "that which"? That which you give us is grammatically incorrect because it does not refer to a defined antecedent.

"That which" appears to function as a sort of demonstrative noun phrase.

There are many occurrences in a ngram search. Here is a typical example:

Google Books: W M Kaufmann: "That Which Flows as One: a Struggle to Love"

"A father is not the bedrock that crushes his children, but rather that which supports them; upon which they stand firm and strive to realize their own spirits."

The point about antecedents is emphasised in:

Grammarist

The phrase that which often could be shortened to one-word equivalent pronouns such as what and whatever. The main exception is when that which refers to an antecedent.
