Relative Pronouns

We use relative pronouns to introduce relative clauses. The relative pronouns are:

  • that
  • which
  • who
  • whom
  • whose

As in these examples:

  • I know the boy who found my dog.
    (relative pronoun/who – relative clause/found my dog)
  • My new dog, which I bought last year, loves chicken.
    (relative pronoun/which – relative clause/I bought last year)
