An adjectival clause begins with a relative pronoun such as who, which, that, whose, where, whom etc. hence it is called a (defining) relative clause as well. This clause is not separated by a comma from the noun it describes. But when the clause is marked off by a comma from the noun it describes, it is not a relative clause.<br \/>\nThe man whose car was stolen has reported the case<br \/>\nRelative\/Adj.cl.describing the NP &#8216;the man&#8217;<br \/>\nThe boy whom you praised so well has been rewarded.<br \/>\nRelative\/Adj. cl.
