Are you sometimes wondering if you should say 'the person who' or 'the person that'?
-
Are you unsure when to use 'whom' or 'whose', or 'which' or 'what'?
-
Then join me in this lesson for a complete review of relative pronouns.
-
Hello and welcome everyone. This is Minoo at Anglo-Link.
-
Today, we're going to review the
-
use of words like 'whom', 'who', 'whose', 'which' and 'that'
-
when they're used as relative pronouns.
-
A relative pronoun is used after a noun to make it clear which person or
-
thing we're talking about. The information that follows the pronoun is
-
contained in what we call a relative clause. There is often some confusion
-
about which word to use in different situations.
-
Sometimes, we want to give information about a person, sometimes about an object.
-
Sometimes, it is about something that belongs to the person or the object.
-
So, in this lesson, I will clarify the usage of relative pronouns and also
-
explain when you can drop these pronouns. By the end of this lesson you will have
-
learned how to use these words correctly when you speak and when you write.
-
So, when you're ready we can begin!
