We can use relative clauses to join two sentences in English, or to give more information about something. Relative pronouns do two jobs at once. They are used as subject or objects of verbs, like other ponouns; at the same time, they join clauses together.
The most common relative pronouns are who, whom, which and that. We use who, whom for people and which for things. We can use that for people and things.
They bought a bike which/ that is very expensive.
The person who/ that is phoning is my mother.
There are other relative pronouns such as whose or relative adverbs such as where and when. Whose is always the subject of the relative clause. It replaces a possessive. It can be used for people and things. Where is use for places and can't be replaced by that. When refers to time expressions and can be replaced by that.

I live in the city where I study.
2009 was the year when I was graduated.
