10. Structure
Relative Pronoun
A relative pronoun is a pronoun that
introduces a relative clause. It is called a
"relative" pronoun because it "relates" to
the word that it modifies. There are five
relative pronouns: who, whom, whose,
which, that*
11. Who (subject) and whom (object) are
generally only for people. Whose is for
possession. Which is for things. That can
be used for people** and things and as
subject and object in defining relative
clauses (clauses that are essential to the
sentence and do not simply add extra
information).
12. Functions of the relative pronoun
1. The relative pronoun is the subject:
First, let’s consider when the relative pronoun is the
subject of a defining relative clause.
The relative clause can come after the subject or the
object of the sentence. We can’t drop the relative
pronoun.
2. The relative pronoun is the object:
Next, let’s talk about when the relative pronoun is
the object of the clause. In this case we can drop the
relative pronoun if we want to. Again, the clause can
come after the subject or the object of the sentence.
13. Example
- We will enjoy the desert sunset and spend
the night under the stars, which cool breezes
gently blowing through our tents.

- For the next six days, our camel caravan will
take us across sand dunes, through valleys
and into oases where palm trees grow.

Sahara Caravan
If you’ve ever dreamt to travelling across the
Sahara desert on a camel, you’ll be surprised
to know that your dream can come true!
Traveller’s Tales offers a ten-day caravan
adventure which will allow you to experience
the magic and mystery of the Grand Sahara
Desert and the novelty of travelling by camel.
Our journey begins with a flight on a
comfortable jet from London Heathrow to
Casablanca.
15. After a short stop in that famous city, we fly to
Ouarzazate, a Moroccan town on the edge of
the Sahara Desert. We will spend the first day
exploring the historic sights of Ouarzazate and
enjoying the unique Moroccan cuisine. On the
second day, our true adventure begins, as we
meet the camels which will carry us safely
across the desert. After passing villages where
people live almost exactly as they did 1000
years ago, we will join the caravan. We will
enjoy the desert sunset and spend the night
under the stars, which cool breezes gently
blowing through our tents.
16. For the next six days, our camel caravan will take us
across sand dunes, through valleys and into oases
where palm trees grow. At night, we will set up camp
and dig for water for camels, then sit around a
campfire drinking traditional mint tea under the
desert skies. On the eight day, we will return to
Casablanca and enjoy a tour of Morocco’s capital city
before having a final dinner together in our hotel. We
guarantee that our ten-day journey will be an
experience you will never forget. It is not just a
holiday – it’s a true adventure.
