Hi there, I'm from China. There are some answers to the question I'm about to ask, but they all come from Chinese. I don't know whether they are right or not. I was hoping that I could find the answer here. Thank you.
Here is the sentence:
A lot of language learning, ______ has been discovered, is happening in the first year of life, so parents should talk much to their children during that period.
Some people say that we can only put "as" in the blank, because clauses start with "which" can't be put in the middle of the sentence. Are they right about this ?
"as" or "which"

Re: "as" or "which"
Yes - only 'as' here, not 'which'.
