Summary

The relative pronoun is the word used for ‘who’, ‘whom’, ‘whose’, and ‘which’ when those words do not introduce questions (and for ‘that’ when equivalent to ‘who’ etc.), as ‘The man who finds the gold will be rich’ and ‘You should have seen the one that got away.’ In Latin, as in English, the relative pronoun is very similar to the interrogative pronoun, which we saw in chapter 13.3; in fact the relative pronoun is identical in form to the interrogative adjective, quī, quae, quod.
