            Sebelum lebih jauh berbicara tentang “adjective clause”. Terlebih dahulu pelajari istilah – istilah berikut ini:

1.             Clause ( Klausa) adalah :
            sekelompok kata yang mengandung sebuah subjek dan sebuah kata kerja (verb).

2.          Independent Clause ( Klausa Independen) adalah :
kalimat lengkap yang mengandung sebuah subjek dan sebuah kata kerja (verb). Independent Clause  disebut juga “main clause.” 

3.          Dependent Clause ( Klausa Independen)
adalah :kalimat tidak lengkap yang harus dihubungkan kepada sebuah “Independent Clause”.

4.          Adjective Clause (Klausa Adjektif)
            adalah    :sebuah “dependent clause” yang memodifikasi sebuah kata benda yang bertujuan untuk menjelaskan, mengidentifikasi, atau memberi informasi lebih lanjut tentang benda tersebut. Adjective Clause disebut juga Relative Clause.

Example
I like the book which is on the table.
Kata “which” memodifikasi kata “book”.

            Klausa Adjective biasanya diawali oleh kata yang disebut “relative pronoun” atau kata ganti penghubung yang berfungsi untuk menghubungkan Kata Benda yang dijelaskan dengan Kalimat yang menjelaskannya.
Macam – Macam  Kata Ganti Penghubung  (Relative Pronouns)
 - who
 - whom
 - whose
 - which
 - that
Some Examples
1. The man who came here just now  is Mr.Wahyu.
    (=Pria yang baru saja datang ke sini adalah Pak Wahyu)
2. The film which I saw last night  was very good.
    (=Film yang saya lihat tadi malam  sangat bagus)
3. The girls whom I met in the party last night are very friendly.
    (=Gadis – gadis yang saya jumpai di pesta tadi malam  sangat ramah.)
4. The boy whose father died looks very sad.
    (=Anak lelaki yang ayahnya meninggal itu tampak sangat sedih.)
Question 1
Tahukah kamu apa arti kata – kata who, which, whom, whose, yang terdapat dalam contoh kalimat tadi?
answer   :
Question 2
Karena keempat kata tersebut memiliki arti yang sama dalam bahasa Indonesia, dapatkah kata – kata tersebut saling menggantikan?
answer   :  meskipun keempat “relative pronoun” tersebut memiliki makna yang sama dalam    
               bahasa Indonesia, namun masing – masing memiliki fungsi yang berbeda - beda.
               “who” dan “whom” hanya digunakan untuk kata ganti penghubung “orang”.Sedangkan   
               “which” digunakan untuk kata ganti penghubung “benda”
