Question

who, whom, whose, which, where, and that are relative pronouns when used to introduce adjective clauses. the relative pronoun refers to a word, or antecedent, in the main clause, and the adjective clause it introduces describes that word.
underline the adjective clause in each sentence below and circle the relative pronoun.

(6) god’s man had the same message for general jackson as for anyone whom he knew to be lost.
(7) “general jackson, if you don’t get converted, you will be as lost as those who are heathens.”
(8) this was a statement which could have offended the general.
(9) however, the general was a man whose feelings were not easily hurt.
(10) instead of being offended, he complimented mr. cartwright by saying something that ought to be true of every preacher.
(11) “any man who is a minister of jesus christ ought to love everybody and fear no mortal man.”
how do we determine whether to use “who” or “whom”

Explanation:

The problem involves analyzing sentences to identify adjective clauses and relative pronouns, which falls under Linguistics (a subfield of Arts) as it deals with language structure and grammar. For each sentence:

1. Sentence (1): Adjective clause - "who changed his message for no one", Relative pronoun - "who" (circle "who", underline the clause).
2. Sentence (2): Adjective clause - "that is often told about him", Relative pronoun - "that" (circle "that", underline the clause).
3. Sentence (3): Adjective clause - "where Mr. Cartwright was preaching", Relative pronoun - "where" (circle "where", underline the clause).
4. Sentence (4): Adjective clause - "which conveyed this news", Relative pronoun - "which" (circle "which", underline the clause).
5. Sentence (5): Adjective clause - "whom others seemed to hold in awe", Relative pronoun - "whom" (circle "whom", underline the clause).
6. Sentence (6): Adjective clause - "whom he knew to be lost", Relative pronoun - "whom" (circle "whom", underline the clause).
7. Sentence (7): Adjective clause - "who are heathens", Relative pronoun - "who" (circle "who", underline the clause).
8. Sentence (8): Adjective clause - "which could have offended the General", Relative pronoun - "which" (circle "which", underline the clause).
9. Sentence (9): Adjective clause - "whose feelings were not easily hurt", Relative pronoun - "whose" (circle "whose", underline the clause).
10. Sentence (10): Adjective clause - "that ought to be true of every preacher", Relative pronoun - "that" (circle "that", underline the clause).
11. Sentence (11): Adjective clause - "who is a minister of Jesus Christ", Relative pronoun - "who" (circle "who", underline the clause).
