Everything about Relative Pronouns and Relative Clauses by Franco

++Relative clauses are of two kinds: Defining and Non-defining.
++

DEFINING RELATIVE CLAUSES
These clauses describe the NOUN in such a way as to distinguish it from other nouns of the same class, which is essential to a clear understanding of the NOUN.

The man who told me this refused to give me his name

**"WHO TOLD ME THIS " ** is the relative clause, if we omit this, it is not clear what man we are talking about.
Notice, that there is no comma between a noun and a defining relative clause.

The noise that he made woke everybody up

Relative pronouns used in defining relative clauses
_They vary in whether they refer to persons or things, do not vary for singular, plural, masculine, or feminine _

For persons: Nominative WHO THAT; that is more used with indefinite pronouns.
Accusative WHOM WHO THAT; whom is the correct form but who is more used.
Possessive ** WHOSE**
For things: Nominative: WHICH THAT
Accusative WHICH THAT
Possessive ** WHOSE OF WICH**
