We use a relative clause (proposizione relativa) to give extra information about the nouns (sostantivi/nomi) in the main clause (proposizione principale) , without starting a new sentence.
The relative clause goes immediately after the noun it relates to and it is introduced by a relative pronoun (pronome relativo).
Relative pronouns are:
Examples:
The man WHO works at the Post Office is veery kind.
Tina has a bunch of flowers WHICH is friend bought.
The blue jacket THAT she is wearing belongs to her friend.
The man THAT lives upstairs is a doctor.
That is the house WHOSE owner is my uncle.
The hotel WHERE we slept was excellent.
That was the day WHEN my sister was born.
Tell me the reason WHY you are here!
Here's a map for you:
And here a couple of videos:
And now the best part of this post:

Have a nice weekend! =)
thank you prof! I understand...have a nice sunday😉😉
RispondiEliminaYou too!
Elimina*LUCA*:Thank you for this post !
RispondiEliminaIn our book there aren't many relatives pronouns( *whose* ,when,where,why)
After I'm going to write them on my book👍
Eehh..nothing,thank you again for everything that you do for we..
See you tomorrow and have a nice Sunday!☺
I hope to have written decently😂😂
Yes,you're right: in your book there aren't ALL THE relatives pronouns I wrote, but since they are very easy I decided to write and explain the use of all of them. =)
EliminaInstead of AFTER in this case you should write LATER:
- LATER > At a time in the future or after the time you have mentioned
EX. He'll be back later
- AFTER > Later than someone or something else
EX. I can't go next week - how about the week after (= the following week)?
And in the sentence "[...] that you do for US (it's an object, not a subject)....
And don't worry... you're improving your writing skills!
Ah....ok,but I haven't understood the differences between After and later....could you explain again in class the difference??
EliminaHave a nice Sunday!😉👌👋
