Relative | === What are Relative Clauses? === | ||
Relative clauses are a type of dependent clause that provide additional information about a noun in the main clause. In simpler terms, they help us describe or specify something without having to start a new sentence. | |||
For example: | |||
* "The man who is wearing a hat is my uncle." | |||
In this sentence, "who is wearing a hat" is the relative clause that gives us more information about "the man." | |||
=== The Function of Relative Pronouns === | |||
In Northern Uzbek, relative clauses often begin with relative pronouns. The most common relative pronouns are: | |||
* '''kim''' (who) | |||
* '''nima''' (what) | |||
* '''qayerda''' (where) | |||
* '''qachon''' (when) | |||
These pronouns help us connect the clause to the noun we are describing. | |||
