Relatives pronouns
Hi friends!
Last day,Gema taught us the relative pronouns.We use them to add a relative clause to a sentence.For example:
-This is my friend.His brother is in Paris.
>This is my friend whose brother is in Paris.(Este es mi amigo cuyo hermano está en París)
We have six relative pronouns:Where,Who,Whose,Which,When and That.
Here,we are going to put six examples:
>Where: -He was in London.I was born.
*He was in London where I was born.
>Who: -He is the man.He fights with Yeray.
*He is the man who fights with Yeray.
>Whose -He is the man.His mother is Lola.
*He is the man whose mother is Lola.
>Which: -The dog is ill.The dog is in the vet.
*The dog which is in the vet is ill.
>When: -1981 was a year.I was born.
*1981 was the year when I was born.
>That: -He is the man.He eats with Pepa.
* He is the man that eats with Pepa.
!¡ Sometimes,the relative pronouns can be omitted if we have a subject in each clause.For example:
> He is the man.I met yesterday.
*He is the man (who) I met yesterday |Who can be omitted because of the underlined subject|
Another thing is that we can use THAT instead of using Who or Which,but only in defining relative clauses that we are going to explain the next day.For example:
*He is the man WHO/THAT fights with Yeray.
*The dog WHICH/THAT is in the vet is ill.
