Hello, I've seen this expression many times and I don't know exactly how to use it. Could you all help me?
Exemples:
- He found the space, which happens to be across the street from his house.
- This would phase out Social Security, which happens to be anti-social and insecure.
- I'm currently using an iPhone 7, which happens to be my first Apple phone.
- Colombia's position, which happens to be the same as the US, is the only sensible one.
- He climbed Mount Rainier, which happens to be the highest point in Washington, in 1993.
