9 LES PRONOMS RELATIFS COMPOSES

10 French Relative Pronouns
Just like in English, the French relative pronouns are words like “who,” “which,” or “that” which are used to introduce a relative clause. They help to join parts into a single sentence by replacing a subject, a direct object, or an object of a preposition. Let's take a look at the following examples:

11 Examples Des emEmples I bought a house. This house has three rooms. I bought a house which has three rooms. This is a bike. The bike was stolen. This is a bike that was stolen. They sell a dress. I dream about the dress they sell. They sell a dress about which I dream. This is a city. I live in this city. This is a city where I live.

12 Using Relative Pronouns
In order to pick the proper French pronoun, you will need to know a few details about its grammatical role. In brief, the choice of a French relative pronoun depends on: Whether it replaces a subject, a direct object, or an object of a preposition. What is the gender and number of the person or thing that the pronoun refers to (antecedent). Whether the antecedent represents a human.

13 List of French Relative Pronouns

14 As Relative Pronoun Lequel replaces an inanimate object of a preposition. If the object of the preposition is a person, use qui.)    Le livre dans lequel j'ai écrit...    The book in which I wrote La personne à qui j’ai parlé The person to whom I spoke…    La ville à laquelle je songe...    The town about which I'm dreaming... L’amie à qui je songe… The friend about whom I’m dreaming…     Le cinéma près duquel j'ai mangé...    The theater near which I ate... / The theater I ate near...

15 Pronoms Relatifs Lequel or one of its variations replaces an indirect object referring to a thing* after a preposition,** including prepositions which are required after a given verb or expression. *If the object of the preposition is a person, you need qui. ***How do you know whether to use dont or duquel? You need dont when the preposition is de by itself. You need duquel when de is part of a prepositional phrase, such as près de, à côté de, en face de, etc.

16 Des exEmples "Le voyage dont je rêve" Au contraire:
parce que on dit "rêver de“ mais comme ce verbe peut aussi s'employer avec "à“ "Le voyage auquel je rêve" est aussi correct. Au contraire: Le voyage "auquel" je me souviens" est incorrect car "se souvenir de" s'emploie toujours avec "de“ Il faut donc dire: “Le voyage dont je me souviens" .
