: Relative Pronoun: masculine meaning that, which,
who; and when
referring to more than one place, thing or idea it
denotes
whatever, whichever, whomever.

verbs. They are used to introduce subordinate adjectival clauses and
therefore create complex sentences. The choice of such pronouns
depends on the antecedent's number and gender.
