RELATIVE CLAUSES

When we want to add more information to a simple sentence we can add a relative clause. We use a relative pronoun to join a relative clause to a main clause. We use the relative pronoun...

• who to  refer to people

That's the man who I met yesterday.

• which to refer to things
  

The book which I read yesterday was very interesting. 

• where to refer to places 

This is the shop where I bought my dress. 

• when to refer to times 

2009 was the year when my brother was born. 

• whose to refer to possession

That's the woman whose son is a famous singer.


We use defining relative clauses for definitions. Do the following exercises.
