Use Relative Adverbs

Relative adverbs are words that connect ideas and give more information about a place, time, or reason.

The three common relative adverbs are:

  • Where – refers to a place

  • When – refers to a time

  • Why – refers to a reason

Examples:

  • This is the website where Sylver sells his hats.

  • Monday is the day when he updates his store.

  • That is the reason why customer feedback is important.

In this lesson, you will practice using where, when, and why to connect ideas and create complete, meaningful sentences.
