Relative Pronouns
1. WHO (que, quien, quienes)
Used to refer to people.
Example: The boy, who you met yesterday, is my brother.
2. WHICH (que, el que, la que...)
Used to refer to animals, things, or objects.
Example: The car, which you bought yesterday, is really nice.
3. THAT (que, el que, la que...)
Used to refer to people, animals, and things. There is a rule in English that says that "that" cannot be used after a comma. Therefore, we cannot use this relative in non-defining sentences, which are those sentences in which the relative clause goes between commas.
4. WHAT (lo que)
We use "what" with this meaning when it is a relative pronoun, and not an interrogative one.
Example: What you say is false! ///// I don't understand what you say.
