Overview of this Lesson

• In this lesson we will learn
• the relative pronouns who, that, and which
• that like any pronoun, their gender and number
  are determined by their antecedent, their case by
  function in the sentence.
• that relative clauses are always dependent
  clauses, so they cannot contain the main subject
  and verb of the sentence.

English Grammar

• The relative pronouns in English are who, whom,
  that, which, and whose.
• Who and whom are used when the antecedent is a
  human.
• Who is used for masculine and feminine concepts
  and which for neuter.
• That can refer to either.
• The book that was destroyed was my favorite.
• I helped the lady that was injured in the wreck.
• Whose usually refers to humans, but is also used
  for non-humans.

English Grammar

• Relative pronouns do not ask questions that is
  the role of interrogative pronouns.
• A relative pronoun introduces a clause that
  usually modifies a noun.
• The teacher whom the students love is tough but
  fair.
• I am enjoying the Greek New Testament that I
  bought yesterday.

• A relative pronoun introduces a clause that

• The teacher whom the students love is tough but
  fair.
• I am enjoying the Greek New Testament that I
  bought yesterday.
• A relative clause is the relative pronoun and the
  clause it introduces. They are always dependent
  clauses and will therefore never contain the main
  verb of the sentence.

11
Forms of the Relative Pronoun

• Notice the similarity between these forms and the
  article accent distinguishes between them in the
  nominative.
• Number and gender are determined by antecedent,
  case by function in the sentence (see Attraction,
  p. 120, for exception).
• Keep the entire relative clause together as a
  unit when dividing up a sentence for translation.
