1. Relative Clauses

2. Relative clauses are a type of clause that joins two thoughts or two sentences together. We give additional information about something without starting another sentence.
We use who, that, which, where and whose to make our relative clause.

3. For example the two thoughts:
A man lives next door to me.
and
The man is from Australia.
can be joined together like this:
The man who lives next door to me is from Australia.
This tells the listener or reader who we are talking about.

4. Or the two thoughts:
Australia is a country.
and
Australia is located in the Southern Hemisphere.
Can be joined together like this:
Australia is a country, which is located in the Southern Hemisphere. 
This time the clause gives us extra information about Australia.

5. use example who which whose whom that
subject or object pronoun for people
I told you about the woman who lives next door.
which
subject or object pronoun for animals and things
Do you see the cat which is lying on the roof?
whose
possession for people animals and things
Do you know the boy whose mother is a nurse?
whom
object pronoun for people, especially in non-defining relative clauses (in defining relative clauses we colloquially prefer who)
I was invited by the professor whom I met at the conference.
that
subject or object pronoun for people, animals and things in relative clauses (who or which are also possible)
I don’t like the table that stands in the kitchen.

6. use example when where why refers to a time expression
the day when we met him

the place where we met him
