Dear Donna

I must tell you about the man I met on holiday. It happened last year in June, when I went to Italy. I met him in Rome, where I was staying overnight. I was walking around the Forum, which is one of Rome's ancient sites. The guide had been feeling unwell all day and that was the reason why he suddenly fainted! Someone shouted, 'Doctor!' and a man who was standing nearby came rushing up to help. He took the guide into the shade, where it was cooler, and rushed to a telephone which was nearby to call an ambulance. The rest of people, most of whom were Italians, surrounded the two men. Fortunately, it proved to be nothing serious. Anyway, we got chatting, and guess what! This man, whose name is David, comes from Birmingham, where I studied History. We spent a nice time together and are going to meet next week. I'll keep you posted.

Zaimki względne (relative pronouns) służą do budowania zdań względnych (relative clauses), które opisują podmiot, do którego się odnoszą i nie mogą funkcjonować jako samodzielne zdania.

• why - "dlaczego"; odnosi się do powodu jakiegoś zachowania;
• which - "który"; odnosi się do rzeczy;
• whose - "którego"; oznacza przynależność podmiotu do kogoś lub czegoś;
• who - "który, która"; odnosi się do osób;
• whom - "kogo, komu"; odnosi się do osób i wskazuje na przynależność;
• where - "gdzie"; odnosi się do miejsc;
• when - "kiedy"; odnosi się do puntu w czasie.
