  1. Many Brits came to the palace. The old man was King Cogidubnus. Try to think of a one word adjective to describe the king as one holding a sceptre (that thing cradled in his arm). Sometimes, just a simple one word adjective is not enough to describe something. That is when we use a RELATIVE CLAUSE. It acts like a big, extended adjective.

  2. Many Brits came to the palace. The old man, who was holding a scepter, was King Cogidubnus. The highlighted sections are called “relative clauses” because they are “related” (describe) another word in the sentence. They act just like adjectives, coming AFTER the nouns they describe.

  3. A woman was sitting near Cogidubnus. The woman, who was wearing a crown, was the queen. The Relative Clause (underlined in the sentences above) is always introduced by a RELATIVE PRONOUN (highlighted). In English, the relative pronouns are “who” or “whom” (when describing a person) & “which” or “that” (when describing things or non-people).
