Relative clauses
We use relative pronouns in relative clauses.
We use relative clauses to give more information about something, without having to start a new sentence.
That man over there is called Bill Gates. He started Microsoft. ——>
That man over there, who's called Bill Gates, started Microsoft.
Use Example
who for people What's the name of the man who created the Internet?
which for things and animals _ The experiment which worked was the last one.
where for places This is the town where Albert Einstein was born.
whose to show possession That's the man whose sister discovered a new planet.
Nateh) » We can use who for animals when we give them a personality.
¥ Our dog, who's called Benji, is eight years old.
+ When there is a relative pronoun, remember not to repeat the subject/object.
X What's the name of the man who he created the World Wide Web?
X This is the experiment which I'm doing it at the moment.
ONon-defining relati
Non-defining relative clauses give extra information. The sentence makes sense without the relative clause.
That man over there, who is called Bill Gates, started Microsoft.
lf we remove the relative clause, the sentence still makes sense:
That man over there started Microsoft.
Use Example rctntul hints
ES

Defining relative clauses give very important information. if we remove a defining relative clause, the sentence
doesn't make sense.
Imagine that there are lots of people in a room. Only one of them is wearing a blue shirt.
The person who is wearing the blue shirt started Microsoft.
If we remove the relative clause, we won't know which person it is.
