Eu queria saber ao certo, quando pode ser utilizado o that,who,which,whose por que em alguns casos eles nao podem ser usados, e eu acabo me confundindo muito.
Por Exemplo:
Muito Obrigado!
Por Exemplo:
- Dave is engaged to a girl who he met in Colombia. ( nao pode usar o who nessa frase)
- Those are the guys that she was talking about. ( nao pode usar o that nessa frase)
- I like books which make me think. ( o uso do which esta correto)
- This CD which I bought yesterday. ( nao pode usar o which)
- People say that I complain a lot and that I tend to focuson problems and difficulties. ( o uso do that esta correto)
Muito Obrigado!

Defining relatives clauses
Defining relative clauses explain which person or thing you’re talking about.
Julia's the woman who/that works with me.
Julia é a mulher que trabalha comigo.
It's a book that/which tells you how to relax.
Este é um livro que ensina como relaxer.
That's the house where I was born.
Esta é a casa onde eu nasci.
That's the boy whose father plays for the Lakers.
Este é o garoto cujo o pai joga para o Lakers.
He's the man (who/that) I met on the plane.
Este é o homem que eu conheci no avião.
* To give important information about a person, place or thing use a relative clause = a relative pronoun + (subject + ) verb
* Use a relative pronouns Who/that for people, that/which for things, and where for places. Use whose to mean “of who/ of which.”
* That is more common than which in defining clauses.
* Who, which, and that can be omitted when the relative pronoun is the object, not the subject, of the clause, e.g., He’s the man (that) I met on the plane. (The subject of met is I, so it is not necessary to use that.)
See ya!

Matheus,
1. Primeiramente, você vai precisar da informação contida no link a seguir:
Pronomes relativos em inglês: who, that, which
Dave is engaged to a girl who he met in Colombia. ( nao vejo problemas com "who" nesta frase, neste contexto)
Veja um contexto semelhante, feito por nativos:
''The 16-year-old revealed to The People yesterday he is seeing a girl who he met at his audition in London earlier this summer.''
Those are the guys that she was talking about. ( nao vejo problemas com "that" nesta frase, neste contexto)
I like books which make me think. ( o uso do which esta correto)
This CD which I bought yesterday. (não vejo problemas no uso de "which" nesta estrutra, neste contexto)
People say that I complain a lot and that I tend to focuson problems and difficulties. ( o uso do that esta correto)
Bons estudos!
