a) relative pronouns: who, whom, whose, which, that

b) relative adverbs: when, where, why.

Relative pronouns

I saw a film which/that was very good.	This is the book (which/that) I read last week.	This is the house whose roof/the roof of which was destroyed.
Who, whom, which or that can be omitted when there is a noun or personal pronoun between the relative pronoun and the verb, that is, when they are the objects of the relative clause. When who, which etc are subjects of the relative clause, they cannot be omitted. The dress (which/that) you bought yesterday is very nice.(can be omitted) The man whocalled just now is my brother.

Prepositions in Relative Clauses
