Lesson 26 - Parts of Speech - Pronouns

View lesson on Daily Grammar

Relative pronouns join dependent clauses to independent clauses. They are who, whose, whom, which, and that. Clauses will be taught in detail later.

     Example:
     He found his money that he had lost.
     (That joins the two clauses together into one sentence.)

Instructions: Find the relative pronouns in the sentences, and see how many other pronouns you can find as a bonus.

1. I want the house, which is brick.

2. Jack ordered the meal that we picked up.

3. Freddie is the girl who won the contest.

4. Jon is a man on whom I can rely.

5. The student whose answer was wrong turned bright red.
