Relative clauses

Giving information to define something or someone

Relative pronouns

We use them to clarify who or what we are talking about. They appear after nouns

  • who/that: people
  • which/that: animals, things
  • whose: possession
  • when: time
  • where: place
  • whom: people (I.Object)

Types of Relative clauses

Defining

They present essential information about the antecendent.

Example: The man who is sat next to you is old.

Non-defining

They present additional information about the antecedent.

Example: The city of Rochester, where the company Kodak is based, is in the state of New York.
