Emphasis (1) 1 We can emphasise key information in a sentence by: a adding a clause with It is / was, etc.... that... at the start of the sentence. Joe bought a tablet last weekend. → It was Joe who bought a tablet last weekend. →It was a tablet that Joe bought last weekend. →It was last weekend that Joe bought a tablet. We often use this structure to make a contrast: It was a tablet that Joe bought, not a smartphone. b adding a clause with What. Kate lost her debit card. →What Kate lost was her debit card. →What Kate did was lose her debit card. →What happened was that Kate lost her debit card. 2 We can use All (that) in the same way as What. It means 'the only thing' I just need some money. →All (that) I need is some money. →They only needed to ask. →All (that) they needed to do was ask.
