A relative pronoun is a pronoun that introduces a relative clause.
A relative clause is a group of words that includes a subject and a verb but is not a complete thought. A relative clause adds information about its antecedent.
The relative pronouns are: who, whom, whose, which, that.
An interrogative pronoun is a pronoun that introduces a question.
The antecedent of an interrogative clause is usually the noun or pronoun that answers the question.
The interrogative pronouns are: who, whom, what, which, whose.
Example:
Who gave you the beautiful flowers? (interrogative pronoun)
My neighbor who has a garden gave them to me. (relative pronoun)
