An adjective clause modifies a noun and contains a subject and verb. It begins with a relative pronoun like who, whom, whose, that, or which or a relative adverb like when, where, or why. The clause follows the noun and functions like an adjective to answer what kind, how many, or which one. It can take the form of a relative pronoun or adverb followed by a subject and verb, or just a relative pronoun functioning as the subject followed by a verb.
