Relative pronouns join dependent clauses to independent clauses. They are who, whose, whom, which, and that. For example, He found his money that he had lost. That joins the two clauses together into one sentence. Clauses will be taught in detail later.
Find the relative pronouns in the sentences, and see how many other pronouns you can find as a bonus.
