relative pronouns

relative clauses

  • A relative clause is a part of a sentence beginning with a relative pronoun (although this pronoun can be omitted in certain cases). For example:

The high school where I studied is called IES JOSEP Mª QUADRADO

The girl who went into the supermarket is my brother’s girlfriend.

My sister, who lives near you, is coming to the party.

  • The relative pronoun you use depends on the thing you're talking about. The most common ones are these:

possession

whose

(That can only be used in defining relative clauses)
