Adjective Clause

—An adjective clause—also called an adjectival or relative clause—will meet three requirements:
—First, it will contain a subject and verb
—Next, it will begin with a relative pronoun [who, whom, whose, that, or which] or a relative adverb [when, where, or why].

—Finally, it will function as an adjective, answering the questions What kind? How many? or Which one?
