Grammar
Let's look at relative clauses.

KB: Relative clauses

Complete the grammar rule. Underline the correct option.
Sometimes you can choose more than one.

1. We use who when we are talking about places/people/things.
2. We use which or that when we are talking about places/people/things.
3. We use whose when we are giving more information about people/places/things.
4. We use where when we are talking about people/places/ things.

Complete the sentences with who/which/that/where or whose.
Sometimes more than one is possible.

In this exercise you match the sentences halves.
