Adverbial Types
Certain clauses of adverbial character are also sometimes classed as relative clauses:
- those qualifying a noun, normally replaceable by a similar standard relative clause: the place (where) I live (i.e. "at/in which I live"); the reason (why) we did it (i.e. "for which we did it").
- those functioning analogously to free relative clauses, but in an adverbial role: I won't hide where you hide; I'll do it how(ever) you do it.

Famous quotes containing the word types:
“The rank and file have let their servants become their masters and dictators.... Provision should be made in all union constitutions for the recall of leaders. Big salaries should not be paid. Career hunters should be driven out, as well as leaders who use labor for political ends. These types are menaces to the advancement of labor.”
—Mother Jones (1830–1930)
