After an initial discussion of what relative clauses are, the two functions of relative pronouns, as pronouns and subordinating conjunctions are explained, with examples. The first section describes the agreement of relative pronouns with the past participle. The invariable relatives qui, que, quoi, dont and o\u00f9 are then listed and their uses exemplified in separate sub-sections. The penultimate section describes the forms and use of lequel, laquelle, auquel, duquel etc. The final section notes briefly the distinction between restrictive and non-restrictive relative clauses. The last part of the chapter contains a passage with numerous instances of relative pronouns, which are then analysed. At the end of the chapter there are five exercises for grammar practice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
