在复合句中修饰名词和代词的从句叫做定语从句.

引导定语从句的关系副词有when, where, why;
关系代词在定语从句中做主语,宾语,定语.
关系副词在定语从句中做状语.
一.由 who, 引导的定语从句,who在从句中做主语(口语中也可做宾语),
修饰表示人的先行词. 例如:

Do you know the comrade who spoke just now ?
The boy who//whom we saw yesterday is John’s brother.
二.whom引导的定语从句,whom在从句中作宾语,修饰表示人的先行词,
口语中可以省略.

The person (whom) you just talked to is Mr. Li.
=The person to whom you just talked is Mr. Li. (介词后 whom不能省略)
The babies whom the nurses are looking for are very healthy.
(固定短语中的介词一般不省略,介词仍放在动词之后)
三.whose引导的定语从句,whose在从句中作定语,修饰表示人或物的先行词.

四.that引导的定语从句,that在从句中做主语或宾语,修饰表示人或物的先行词,
作宾语时可省略,不能放在介词后面作宾语.

The house (which/that) we live in is not large.
This is the watch (which/that ) he was looking for.
(在含有介词的动词固定词组中,介词只能放在动词之后,不能放在which之前 )
六、that 和which 都可以修饰表示物的先行词, 但是下列情况只能用that.
①. 先行词为不定冠词all, few, little, much, everything, nothing 等.
All (that) you have to do is to practise every day.

七、as 引导的定语从句,
as用作关系代词和关系副词引导限定性定语从句,在从句中作主语、定语、表语、或状语,常与the same … as; such… as , so… as , as… as 连用.

Such students as you have mentioned should be criticized.
=Students such as you have mentioned should be criticized.
在the same…后也可用that引导定语从句,但意义有所不同：
that 引出的定语从句,指的是与先行词同一事物；而 as引出的定语从句是与先行词相似的同类事物.
I want to use the same tool that I used yesterday.
I want to use the same tool as I used yesterday.

做定语从句的地点状语.

构成固定搭配.

as you know as is expected

限定性定语从句和非限定性定语从句的区别：
限定性定语从句是先行词在意义上不可缺少的定语,如果去掉,主句的意思就不完整或失去意义.这种从句和主句的关系十分密切,写时不用逗号分开.
非限定性定语从句和主句的关系不十分密切,只是对先行词作些附加的说明,如果去掉,主句的意思依然清楚.这种从句和主句之间往往用逗号分开,一般不用that 引导.
as和 which 引导的非限定性定语从句的比较：
1. 非限定性定语从句位于句未,而且as 和which 在从句中作主语、宾语、表语时可互换.
He is a farmer, as/which is clear from his manner.
This elephant is like a snake, as/which anybody can see.
2.which 引导的非限定性定语从句一般放在句未,而as 引导的非限定性定语从句可放在句未,也可放在句中、句首. 放在句首时不能用which 替换.
Crusoe lost his dog, which made him very sad
Taiwan is part of China, as/which is known to all.
As we have seen, oceans cover more than 70 percent of the earth.
3.as引导非限定性定语从句时,意为“这一点、这件事”,常与 see, hope,expect,know,guess等动词搭配；而which引导非限定性定语从句时与主句有一种因果关系,可译为“所以……”.
Cyprus, as you all know, is in the Mediterranean.
Bamboo is hollow, which makes it very light.
4. as引导非限定性定语从句并在从句中作主语时,其后面的谓语动词大多数必须是连系动词.如果从句谓语动词是行为动词,则必须用which.
He married her, as was natural.
She refused to take the medicine, which made her mother angry.
