3. Using Pronouns in Relative Clauses with Adjectives:

Key points to remember:
* Adjectives always modify nouns or pronouns.
* Pronouns can replace noun phrases, including those with adjectives.
* Relative clauses can use pronouns to connect adjectives to the nouns they modify.
By understanding these relationships, you can effectively use adjectives and pronouns together to create clear and expressive sentences.
