    This document discusses relative clauses in English and Latin. It defines a relative clause as an adjective clause that provides information about a noun in another clause. It gives examples of merging two clauses into a single sentence with a main clause and relative clause, such as "The boys are not listening to the master, who is reading a very long story." The document also discusses the English relative pronouns who, whom, which and that, and how relative clauses are constructed differently in Latin by always requiring a relative pronoun.

    Relative Clauses
    More than you probably
    want to know about
    relatives!
    Not these..... These are
    Augustuss relatives!
    What well cover
    What is a clause?
    The English relative clause
    The English relative pronoun
    The Latin relative pronoun
    Latin relative clauses
    What is a clause?
    Any thought, idea, or event which is expressed
    in language

    Clause 1: Rufilla is unhappy.
    Clause 2: Rufilla lives far fom London.

    2 clauses: Rufilla is unhappy because she lives far
    fom London.
    2 clauses: Rufilla, who lives far fom London, is
    unhappy.

    An English Relative Clause is...
    ... a giant adjective clause, giving us information
    about a noun in another clause.

    Lets look at an example
    showing how the relative
    clause evolves.....


    Clause 1: The boys are not
    listening to the master.

    Clause 2: The master is
    reading a very long story.

    Heres an example we have two single
    clauses:

    Relative Clause

    Step 1:
    Clause 1: The boys are not listening to the master.

    Clause 2: The master is reading a very long story.

    Substitute a pronoun for master in Clause 2.

    Clause 1: The boys are not listening to the master.

    Clause 2: He is reading a very long story.




    Now, well weave the two clauses into one sentence with
    a Main Clause and a relative clause describing a noun in
    the Main Clause.
    Weave into one sentence
    Weave them together into one sentence.....

    MAIN CLAUSE: The boys are not listening to the master,
    RELATIVE CLAUSE: ? is reading a very long story.


    who
    Step 2:
    Clause 1: The boys are not listening to the master.

    Clause 2: He is reading a very long story.

    giant adjective describing the master
    English Relative Pronoun
    The English relative pronoun has cases just like in
    Latin!
    PEOPLE/ANIMALS ANIMALS/THINGS
    Nominative who which
    Acusative whom which


    Note: 1. In English, we often say that instead of who,whom, or which.
    The boy whom I like plays basketball becomes The boy that I like plays
    basketball
    2. In English we also can omit the relative pronoun altogether.
    The boy I Iike plays basketball.

    THIS CANNOT HAPPEN IN LATIN LATI N MUST ALWAYS USE A
    RELATIVE PRONOUN

    Another Example
    Clause 1: The slave is terrified.
    Clause 2: The bull is chasing the slave.



    Clause 1: The slave is terrified.
    Clause 2: The bull is chasing the slave.

    Step 1: Replace slave in Clause 2 with a pronoun
    what pronoun?

    Clause 1: The slave is terrified.
    Clause 2: The bull is chasing __?__.


    Now, well weave the two clauses into one sentence
    with a Main Clause and a relative clause describing a
    noun in the Main Clause.
    him
    Clause 1: The slave is terrified.
    Clause 2: The bull is chasing him.

    Step 2A: Merge the two sentences....

    The slave the bull is chasing him is terrified

    Step 2B: A bit more work to make one MAIN CLAUSE
    and one RELATIVE CLAUSE

    The slave the bull is chasing him is terrified

    Now, replace the pronoun him with a relative pronoun what
    relative pronoun?

    whom
    Final Adjustments
    The slave the bull is chasing whom - is terrified.

    Thats not how we really would say it....
    So, move the relative pronoun whom to the
    beginning of the relative clause....

    And EUGE!

    The slave, whom the bull is chasing, is terrified.
