Exploring Relative Pronouns in English Grammar

This video tutorial covers the five relative pronouns: who, whom, whose, that, and which. It explains their usage in sentences, providing examples for each. 'Who' and 'whom' refer to people, with 'who' as the subject and 'whom' as the object. 'That' and 'which' refer to things, with 'that' used in restrictive clauses and 'which' in non-restrictive clauses. 'Whose' is possessive and can refer to both people and things. The video includes a recap and practice exercises to reinforce learning.
