A relative pronoun introduces a dependent (or relative) clause that describes a noun or pronoun. The five main relative pronouns are who, whom, whose, which, and that.
The relative pronouns who and whom give information aboutpeople.
To figure out whether to use who or whom, restate the dependent clause with a personal pronoun. If the clause uses a subject pronoun (he,she, orthey), use who. If the clause uses an object pronoun (him,her, orthem), use whom.
The relative pronoun that gives necessary information aboutthings. Necessary information narrows down what you're talking about and is not set off by commas.
