Clause A clause is a group of words containing a subject and a verb. Independent clause An independent clause is a complete sentence. It contains the main subject and verb of a sentence. (main clause) Dependent clause A dependent clause is not a complete sentence. It must be connected to an independent clause. Relative clause A relative clause is a dependent clause that modifies a noun. It describes, identifies, or gives further information about a noun. (A relative clause is also called an adjective clause.) Relative pronouns Relative pronouns are used to link two sentences that have the same noun or pronoun in them. Relative pronouns form the beginning of a relative clause.  who (It is used to refer to people.) I saw the man who closed the door.  whom (It is possible instead of who when it is the object of the verb in the relative clause. It is normally used in formal style.) The man whom I saw was Mr. Smith.  which (It is used to refer to things.) The book which is on the table is mine.  that (It is used to refer to people and things.) Where is the cheese that is in the fridge?  whose (It is used to show possession.) We saw some people whose car had broken down. [English Module, Unit 1]

where (It is used to refer to places.) The hotel where we stayed wasn't very clean. when (It is used to refer to a noun of time.) I'll never forget the day when I met you.
