== Introduction ==

Relative clauses are a powerful tool in French grammar that allow you to provide additional information about a noun without starting a new sentence. This lesson will introduce you to the basics of using relative clauses in French.

== 1. What is a Relative Clause? ==

A relative clause is a clause that provides extra information about a noun, typically following it immediately.

'''Example''': Le livre '''que je lis''' est intéressant. (The book '''that I am reading''' is interesting.)

== 2. Relative Pronouns ==

The most common relative pronouns in French are ''que'', ''qui'', ''lequel'', ''dont'', and ''où''.

* '''Que''': used for objects
* '''Qui''': used for subjects
* '''Lequel''': used to mean "which"
* '''Dont''': used to mean "of which" or "from which"
* '''Où''': used to mean "where" or "when"

== 3. Structure of Relative Clauses ==

The basic structure is:

'''Antecedent noun + relative pronoun + verb + additional information'''

* '''Example''': La personne '''qui parle''' est mon ami. (The person '''who is speaking''' is my friend.)

== 4. Examples and Exercises ==

=== Examples ===
* ''La chaise que tu vois est cassée.'' (The chair that you see is broken.)
* ''La ville où je suis né est belle.'' (The city where I was born is beautiful.)

=== Exercises ===
* '''Exercise 1''': Identify the relative clauses in the given sentences.
* '''Exercise 2''': Create your own sentences using relative clauses.

== Conclusion ==

Understanding how to form and use relative clauses in French will allow you to make your sentences more descriptive and connected.
