refer to nouns mentioned earlier. They help add more

person or people.

the noun is a person (typically in more formal contexts).

•Whose:Used to indicate possession or relationship, referring to people or


things.

•Which:Used to provide additional information about things or animals,


typically in non-defining relative clauses.

•That:Used to refer to people, things, or animals in defining relative clauses. It


can refer to both singular and plural nouns.
