Who
(a) ఈ క్రింది రెండు వాక్యములను కలిపి ఒక వాక్యముగా వ్రాయుము. (a) Once there lived a king.
(b) He had an only son.
రెండవ వాక్యములోని pronoun he మొదటి వాక్యములోని noun king నకు చెందియున్నది. అనగా రెండు వాక్యములు ఒక్కరిని గురించియే చెప్పుచున్నవి. రెండవ వాక్యములోని pronoun he, subjective case లో నుండుటచే, relative pronounకూడ subjective case లో నుండవలెను. అందుచే who అను రూపము వాడవలసియున్నది. కావున వానిలోని రెండు భావములను కలిపి ఒక వాక్యముగా నిట్లు వ్రాయవచ్చును.

Def: A Relative” Pronoun is one which not only refers to the same noun or pronoun going before it, but joins two
sentences.
The noun or pronoun for which the Relative pronoun stands is called the Antecedent: so the Relative pronoun must agree with its antecedent in number, gender and person; but it need not agree in case; e.g., It is I whom the teacher wanted to punish.
(b) (a) That is the boy.
(b) He stole my pen.
That is the boy who stole my pen.
