Nachhaltige Mode: relative pronouns, question words in relative clauses

Relative clauses add information about the noun in a main clause, without starting another sentence. German uses definite articles as the relative pronouns, preceded by a comma and followed by word order 3. In two-verb clauses, the finite (conjugated) verb goes to the end of the sentence. Question words, such as 'wo', 'warum' and 'wann' can also be used as pronouns in relative clauses. Use 'was' to mean 'that' or 'which' when referring to a whole clause, rather than to a specific noun.
