    RELATIVE ADVERBS


    The following adverbs can be used to join sentences or clauses. They replace the more formal structure of preposition + which in a relative clause:


    where, when, why


    Examples:


    That's the restaurant where we met for the first time.
    (where = at/in which)


    I remember the day when we first met.
    (when = on which)


    There was a very hot summer the year when he was born.
    (when = in which)


    Tell me (the reason) why you were late home.
    (why = for which, but could replace the whole phrase 'the reason for which')
