When to use qui or que
use que when the word that follows is (or represents) a person or thing/s, such as Cécile, je, tu, il, etc. (as opposed to qui when the word that follows is a verb).
Use qui when the following word is a verb or reflexive pronoun (e.g. me, te, se, lui, le, la, nous, vous, leur, les, etc) , and use que if following word is a noun (thing or person).

Attention!
ATTENTION:
Qui never becomes qu' in front of a vowel or mute h: only the letter e can be omitted for pronunciation in this case!
14
Relative clauses introduced by de...
To introduce relative clauses with the preposition de, there are three ways in French:
- dont (of/about which/whom)
- de qui (of/about whom), which can only apply to living things
The third way we are not studying right now...
- The contracted forms of de + quel (of/about which): duquel / de laquelle / desquels / desquelles.
These forms agree in gender and number with the object they refer to.
15
Attention
You can never have de or duquel or dont at the end of the clause like in English.
-> You cannot say:
La fille qui je parle de
La fille laquelle je parle de The girl whom I'm speaking of
La fille je parle dont
16
Dont usage et regles
Dont remplace les pronoms relatifs de qui ou de + une forme de lequel (duquel, de laquelle, desquels, desquelles). Il s'emploie donc pour remplacer des personnes et des choses
a. pour indiquer la possession. L'adjectif possessif (son, sa, notre, etc. ) est remplacé par l'article défini (le, la, les).
b. avec les expressions telles que avoir besoin de, être content de, parler de, se souvenir de
17
Dont l'usage et les regles
Dont est un pronom relatif. Alors, il introduit une proposition relative et l'ordre normal le suit toujours.
Le garçon dont je connais le père a fini son travail.
La boîte dont j'ai enlevé le couvercle vient de se casser.
Dont se place toujours directement après son antécédent. Si l'antécédent est séparé du pronom relatif dont ne s'emploie pas. Ces formes s'emploient donc surtout pour les choses, après les prépositions composées telles que au milieu de, à cotéde, au centre de, au-dessus de. etc
Voilà le lac au milieu duquel nous avons attrapé plusieurs poissons. (L'antécédent de duquel est le lac)
La jeune fille avec l'ami de laquelle nous parlions n'habite pas ici. (L'antécédent de de laquelle est la jeune fille.)
