Take two short sentences \u2014 <em>The teacher is from Taipei. The teacher speaks four languages.<\/em> A relative pronoun lets you fuse them into one cleaner sentence: <em>The teacher <strong>who<\/strong> speaks four languages is from Taipei.<\/em> The \u95dc\u4fc2\u4ee3\u540d\u8a5e replaces the second mention of &#8220;the teacher&#8221; and pulls the extra information into a single tidy clause.<\/p>\n<p>That fused chunk has a name: a relative clause (also called a \u5f62\u5bb9\u8a5e\u5b50\u53e5 or adjective clause). It works like an adjective \u2014 it modifies a noun. The difference is that an adjective is one word and a relative clause is a small sentence. Once you see relative pronouns as a compression tool rather than a grammar puzzle, the rules below stop feeling arbitrary.<\/p>\n<h2>The 5 Core \u95dc\u4fc2\u4ee3\u540d\u8a5e | who, whom, whose, which, that<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/18kenglish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/relative-pronouns-dictionary-five-core.jpg\" alt=\"\u95dc\u4fc2\u4ee3\u540d\u8a5e reference page showing who whom whose which that in a dictionary\" style=\"max-width:100%;\"><\/p>\n<p>Five is the real number you need to learn. Some grammar books add <em>what<\/em>, but <em>what<\/em> behaves differently \u2014 it does not have a noun in front of it, so it is technically a different category (a fused relative). Stick to the five below and 95% of your writing is covered.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>who<\/strong> \u2014 refers to people, working as the subject of the relative clause. <em>The candidate <strong>who<\/strong> arrived early got the job.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>whom<\/strong> \u2014 refers to people, working as the object. Formal in writing, almost dead in speech. <em>The candidate <strong>whom<\/strong> we hired starts Monday.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>whose<\/strong> \u2014 shows possession, used for people, animals, and (sometimes) things. <em>The student <strong>whose<\/strong> essay won is in my class.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>which<\/strong> \u2014 refers to things and animals, never people. <em>The phone <strong>which<\/strong> I bought last year still works.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>that<\/strong> \u2014 refers to people, things, or animals. Works in most restrictive clauses (more on commas below). <em>The bus <strong>that<\/strong> goes to Songshan stops here.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The single most common mistake Taiwan students make is using <em>which<\/em> for a person \u2014 <em>The teacher which I like<\/em> is wrong, always.

Despite looking like it should only refer to people, modern English allows <em>whose<\/em> for things too, even though grammar books from twenty years ago insisted otherwise. Examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>A student <strong>whose<\/strong> motivation is high will outwork a more talented peer.<\/em> (person)<\/li>\n<li><em>A company <strong>whose<\/strong> values match yours is worth the lower salary.<\/em> (thing \u2014 fully acceptable)<\/li>\n<li><em>A dog <strong>whose<\/strong> owner trained it well is a joy at parties.<\/em> (animal)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The clunky alternative for things \u2014 <em>of which<\/em> \u2014 is technically correct but reads like a legal contract. Stick with <em>whose<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h2>Rule 4 \u2014 Whom for Objects (Formal Writing Only) | whom \u4f5c\u53d7\u8a5e<\/h2>\n<p>Use <em>whom<\/em> when the relative pronoun is the object of the verb in the relative clause. Test: if you would say <em>him<\/em> \u307e\u305f\u306f <em>her<\/em> in the second clause, use <em>whom<\/em>. <em>The author <strong>whom<\/strong> I met yesterday signed my book.<\/em> Mental check: <em>I met him yesterday.<\/em> \u2713 Object position.<\/p>\n<p>The truth is, <em>whom<\/em> is fading. Most native speakers replace it with <em>who<\/em> in conversation, and TOEIC accepts both as correct in many contexts. The two situations where <em>whom<\/em> is still strongly preferred are (1) right after a preposition \u2014 <em>the manager to <strong>whom<\/strong> I report<\/em> \u2014 and (2) in formal writing where precision matters. In everyday speech, no one will think you sound smart for using <em>whom<\/em>; they will think you sound like a textbook. Use it when it fits the register.<\/p>\n<h2>Rule 5 \u2014 That Works for People and Things | that \u5169\u8005\u7686\u53ef\u7528 (\u4f46\u6709\u9650\u5236)<\/h2>\n<p><em>That<\/em> is the multitasker. It refers to people, things, and animals, and it is allowed in restrictive clauses (the no-comma kind). For a quick decision tree: if there is no comma, <em>that<\/em> works for anything. If there is a comma, <em>that<\/em> is wrong \u2014 use <em>who<\/em> for people and <em>which<\/em> for things.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>The phone <strong>that<\/strong> I bought last year still works.<\/em> \u2713 (thing, no comma)<\/li>\n<li><em>The student <strong>that<\/strong> won the contest is in my class.<\/em> \u2713 (person, no comma \u2014 acceptable, though <em>who<\/em> is preferred in writing)<\/li>\n<li><em>The phone, <strong>that<\/strong> I bought last year, still works.<\/em> \u2717 Wrong \u2014 use <em>which<\/em> after a comma.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One under-taught point: when the noun being described is the only one of its kind (a superlative like <em>the best<\/em>, <em>the first<\/em>, <em>the only<\/em>) or contains <em>all<\/em>, <em>every<\/em>, <em>any<\/em>, <em>nothing<\/em>, or <em>everything<\/em>, <em>that<\/em> is almost always preferred over <em>which<\/em>. <em>The best meal <strong>that<\/strong> I ever had was in Tainan.<\/em> Sounds right. <em>The best meal which I ever had\u2026<\/em> sounds bookish and wrong to a native ear.<\/p>\n<h2>When Can You Omit the Relative Pronoun? | \u95dc\u4fc2\u4ee3\u540d\u8a5e\u4f55\u6642\u53ef\u4ee5\u7701\u7565<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/18kenglish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/relative-pronouns-omission-rules.jpg\" alt=\"\u95dc\u4fc2\u4ee3\u540d\u8a5e omission rules \u2014 student writing relative clause practice on whiteboard\" style=\"max-width:100%;\"><\/p>\n<p>This is the part Taiwan classrooms tend to skip, and it is the part native speakers use constantly. You can drop the \u95dc\u4fc2\u4ee3\u540d\u8a5e entirely when two conditions are both met: the clause is restrictive (no commas), and the relative pronoun is the <em>object<\/em> of the verb in the clause. <em>The book <strong>(that)<\/strong> I borrowed is overdue.<\/em> \u305d\u306e <em>that<\/em> can vanish and the sentence still works \u2014 actually, it sounds more natural without it.<\/p>\n<p>Three quick rules for omission:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>You can drop it<\/strong> if the relative pronoun is the object: <em>The candidate (whom) we interviewed got the job.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>You cannot drop it<\/strong> if the relative pronoun is the subject: <em>The candidate <strong>who<\/strong> arrived early got the job.<\/em> Dropping <em>who<\/em> here would break the sentence.<\/li>\n<li><strong>You cannot drop it<\/strong> in non-restrictive clauses (the comma kind): <em>My boss, who lives in Hsinchu, commutes every day.<\/em> The comma keeps <em>who<\/em> locked in.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This omission shortcut is why so much spoken English sounds different from the textbook version. Once you start dropping object-position relative pronouns, your spoken English gets noticeably more fluent within a week.<\/p>\n<h2>Restrictive vs Non-Restrictive Clauses | \u9650\u5b9a\u8207\u975e\u9650\u5b9a\u5b50\u53e5 (\u9017\u865f\u898f\u5247)<\/h2>\n<p>The comma is not decoration. It changes the meaning of the sentence. A restrictive clause (no commas) tells you <em>which<\/em> one \u2014 the information is essential. A non-restrictive clause (commas on both sides) adds extra information that you could remove without breaking the sentence.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>My brother <strong>who lives in Kaohsiung<\/strong> is a chef.<\/em> \u2014 Restrictive. I have multiple brothers and I am specifying the Kaohsiung one.<\/li>\n<li><em>My brother, <strong>who lives in Kaohsiung<\/strong>, is a chef.<\/em> \u2014 Non-restrictive. I only have one brother and I am adding the Kaohsiung detail as a side note.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>That single comma changes the implication entirely. TOEIC reading sections love this trick. The fast rule: if removing the relative clause leaves the main idea intact, use commas. If the relative clause is the part that identifies which noun you are talking about, no commas.<\/p>\n<h2>Common Mistakes Taiwan Students Make | \u53f0\u7063\u5b78\u751f\u5e38\u72af\u932f\u8aa4<\/h2>\n<p>The errors below come up again and again in Taiwan ESL classrooms.
