Grammar structure (Relative Clauses)

Relative Clauses

Relative Adverbs

Relative Pronouns

What do we use them for?

Who (or that) -> for people

Why -> Refers to a reason

We use relative clauses to give additional information about something without starting another sentence.

Which (or that) -> for things

Where -> Refers to place

Whose -> as the possessive form of who

When -> Refers to time

Whom -> as the object of a verb or preposition

Use headphones! PS: sorry for the errors in the sound :(

Two types of relative clauses

Defining relative clauses

We use Non - defining relatve clauses to give extra information, we use commas around them and we always use a relative pronoun.

Non - defining relative clauses
Examples

> Maria, who won a medal last year, is going to take part in the marathon. > My boss, whose wife owns three restaurants, is a hard-working person.

We use defining relative clauses to give essential information about someone or something.

Examples

The boy who lives next door is a tennis player. > The textbook which I bought online is brilliant. > The girl whose family came from Chine is in my class this year.

To don't forget!!

We don’t use commas in defining relative clauses.

We don’t use that to introduce a non-defining relative clause.

To don't forget!!

We can use that instead of who, whom or which in defining relative clauses, but not in non-defining relative clauses.

To don't forget!!

The information in a defining relative clause is essential, so we CAN NOT leave out the relative clause. The information in a non-defining relative clause is extra information which isn’t essential, so we can leave out some information.

It's time to practice!

1. Scan the qr. 2. Choose one of the numbers and try to complete the sentence with the proper relative clause. 3. Enjoy!
