Focus: Grammar in action

Some of the question words that you have studied (who, whose, whom, which) are also 'relative pronouns'. Other question words (where, when, why) are also 'relative adverbs'.

There isn't a real difference between relative pronouns and adverbs. They both allow you to clarify which person, thing, place, time, or reason you're talking about.

Let's find out how you should use these.

Step 1:

Watch the video lesson two or three times and make sure you make some notes.

Step 2:

When you have finished the video lesson, download the Exercise PDF below and do the exercises.

Step 3:

When you've finished the exercises, download the ZIP file below.

Use the Answer key PDF to check and correct your answers.

Then, use the Audio file to build strong reflexes through two listening activities:

Activity 1: Listen & write (or type) each correct answer.

Activity 2: Listen & repeat each correct answer out loud several times without looking at the text.

Step 4:

When you feel you've fully mastered these pronouns, take the quiz.

You need to get a minimum score of 80% in each quiz to receive your Certificate of Completion, so repeat the quiz until you score above 80%. You can take each quiz up to 10 times.
