Relative pronouns & adverbs
Презентацию выполнила учитель английского языка МБОУ «СОШ №11» г. Кемерово, Комогорова Маргарита Николаевна

We use relative pronouns:
who/that to refer to people That's the clergyman (священник) who married them. which/that to refer to things This is the house which he bought. whose with people, animals and objects to show possession (instead a possessive adjective) I have a brother whose car is red. John has a dog whose tail is black.

Relative pronouns are used to connect the main clause (главное предложение) with the relative clauses (придаточное определительное).

omitted - опущенный
Who, which and that can be omitted when they are the object of the relative clause. He’s the person (who) I am going to cooperate with. Who, which and that is not omitted when it is the subject of a relative clause. The man who owns that shop is Italian.

instead of – вместо preposition - предлог
Whom can be used instead of who when it is the object of the relative clause. Whom is always used instead of who or that after a preposition. That’s the boy to whom Stella was talking on the phone yesterday. Whose is never omitted. That’s the woman whose husband is our new boss.

We use relative adverbs:
when/that to refer to a time (and can be omitted) That was the year (when/that) we graduated from University. where to refer a place The restaurant where we first met is going to be pulled down (сносить). why to give a reason, usually after the word reason The reason (why) she left is still unclear.
