| | What Is A Pronoun? |
 | | The interrogative pronouns are "who," "whom," "which," "what" and the compounds formed with the suffix "ever" ("whoever," "whomever," "whichever," and "whatever"). | | | The relative pronouns are "who," "whom," "that," and "which." The compounds "whoever," "whomever," and "whichever" are also relative pronouns. | | | After reading the pamphlet, Judy threw it into the garbage can. |
