复合关系代词what理解问题

章振邦新编高级英语语法330-331页:

what=that which/the thing that.

What remains (=That which remains) in our memories is his courage and undauntedness.

好像记得语法网老师说过:复合关系代词what=the thing which the thing that,但为什么书上说=that which呢?

这个例句What remains (=That which remains)这里对吗?

What remains (=That which remains) in our memories is his courage and undauntedness.

这个句子是正确的。但是,That which 通常只用于十分正式的语体中,也常见于某些谚语中。如:

 I eat what [或that which] I like. (摘自 A Comprehensive Grammar of the English Language by Randolph

 Quirk et al)我吃我喜欢的东西。

 That which is evil is soon learned. (谚语)坏事易学。
