An antecedent is a noun that is replaced by a pronoun. Pronouns are classified into three types: subject (for example, he), object (him), and possessive (his). Like conjunctions, relative pronouns are words that connect clauses-in this case, a relative clause to its main clause.Įnroll for Spoken English Course! Download Entri App! What is a Pronoun?Ī pronoun is a word that replaces a noun (I, me, he, she, herself, you, it, that, they, each, few, many, who, whoever, whose, someone, everybody, etc.). These clauses, like adjectives, describe the subject in some way. Relative clauses are also known as adjective clauses because they identify or provide additional information about the subject of the independent clause to which they are related. A clause that begins with a relative pronoun is ready to answer questions like Which one? How many are there? or Which kind? All relative pronouns are who, whom, what, which, and that. A relative pronoun is a word that introduces and connects a dependent (or relative) clause to an independent clause.
