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.
