    relative

    PRONOUNS
    Jorge Galindo and Daniel Castro
    ¿What are they?
    The relative pronons are words that link two
    clause and create one sentence composed, this
    clause are the principal, that have the principal
    idea, and the relative that have the additional
    information.
    ¿how are they used?
    The relative pronouns are put in the beginning of
    the relative clause and is a bridge for both
    clauses.
    Principal clause + relative pronoun + relative
    clause
    the relative pronouns more
    common
    The more common relative pronouns are:
    1. Who
    2. Which
    3. That
    4. Whose
    5. What
    6. Whom
    1. wHO
    Example:
    • The man who is talking to my mother is my uncle.
    • The woman who lives next door is a doctor.
    • The children who are playing in the park are my
    friends.
    2. wHOm
    Although "whom" is grammatically correct, it's slightly less
    common in modern English, but if you want to sound formal
    “whom” is the best choice
    Examples:
    • The teacher, whom I greatly admire, gave me a scholarship
    recommendation.
    • Is this the candidate with whom we should schedule the final
    interview?
    • There's no one whom I trust more than my best friend.
    3. what
    Example:
    • The movie, what everyone had been waiting for, finally
    premiered last night. (Here, "what" refers to "the movie" and
    provides extra details about its popularity).
    • What you said surprised me. (Here, "what" functions as the
    subject of the sentence).
    • I can't believe what a mess this room is! (Here, "what" acts as
    the object of the preposition "of").
    4. which
    Example:

    • The book which I am reading is about ancient history.


    • This is the house which we bought last year.
    • She gave the gift which I bought her to her friend.
    • That is the town in which I grew up.
    5. That
    Example:
    • The book that I am reading is about ancient history.
    • I found the book that you were looking for.
    • Can you give me the message that I have for Sarah
    to you?
    • This is the house that we grew up in.
    5. whose
    Example:
    • Can you return the book whose cover is red? (In this sentence,
    "whose" refers back to "book" and specifies which book you
    want returned.)
    • The woman whose car is parked outside is asking for you.
    (Here, "whose" refers to "woman" and tells you which woman is
    asking for you.)
    • We need to find the person whose wallet was left on the bus. (In
    this case, "whose" refers to "person" and helps you identify
    which person lost their wallet.)
