How a relative pronouns quiz builds real grammar skill

A relative pronouns grammar quiz works best when it tests the choice between who, whom, whose, which and that inside real sentences, not just in a word list. Many students recognize the words but miss which one fits the noun and the verb in the clause.

  • Test who versus whom by checking whether the pronoun replaces a subject or an object.
  • Practice whose for possession, using sentences drawn from your own readings.
  • Drill the comma rule that separates which from that in restrictive and nonrestrictive clauses.
  • Repeat missed questions in the browser, then export to PDF or DOCX on a paid plan.
Example relative pronouns practice questions
Choose the correct relative pronoun: The student ___ won the prize studied all semester. (who / whom / which)who. It refers to a person and acts as the subject of the verb won.
Choose the correct relative pronoun: The book ___ I borrowed from the library was overdue. (who / which / whose)which. It refers to a thing and is the object of borrowed, so who cannot be used.
True or false: Whom can be the subject of a verb in a relative clause.False. Whom is the object form, so use who when the pronoun is the subject, as in 'the coach who trained us.'
Choose the correct relative pronoun: The girl ___ mother is a doctor waved to us. (who / whose / whom)whose. It shows possession, because the mother belongs to the girl.
True or false: A comma is required before that in a nonrestrictive clause.False. Commas set off nonrestrictive clauses, which take which, not that.

Practice and review

Answer the quiz, read the explanations and repeat the questions you missed.

Your own material matters here. A quiz built from your course notes or a worksheet your teacher gave you checks the exact rules you were taught, such as using a comma before which in a nonrestrictive clause. DeckOwl reads PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files, plain text and photos of pages, then writes questions from that content with an explanation for each answer.

Review the explanations as carefully as the score. Each explanation points to the clue in the sentence, such as whether the pronoun is a subject or an object, so you can see the rule behind the answer.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know whether to use who or whom in a relative clause?

Use who when the pronoun is the subject of its own clause, and whom when it is the object. Replace it with he or him to check, since he matches who and him matches whom.

When should I use that instead of which?

Use that for restrictive clauses with no commas, such as 'the book that won the prize.' Use which for nonrestrictive clauses set off by commas, such as 'the book, which I reread, is short.'

Can I export my relative pronoun quiz?

Yes, on paid plans. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export. The free plan lets you study in the browser.
