Explanation:
-
Interrogative Pronouns: Used to ask questions and identify specific information. Each pronoun serves a different purpose based on what is being asked (e.g., a person, a thing, or a possession).
-
Relative Pronouns: Used to connect clauses and provide additional information about a noun. They help clarify relationships between elements in a sentence.
This worksheet helps reinforce the understanding and usage of these pronouns in both questioning and descriptive contexts.
