English pronouns who, what, which, whose, that, where, when, why, how are called "connective" when they serve to connect clauses in complex sentences. In accordance with their meaning and the types of clauses they introduce they fall into two groups: conjunctive and io I alive pronouns [24; 108-109].
Ukrainian relative pronouns. If the mentioned above interrogative pronouns join the subordinate clause to the main one, I hat is perform the function of linking words and correlate with nouns or pronouns of the main clause then they become relative pronouns. They have certain peculiarities concerning their sphere of usage.
The pronoun який is used in all styles of a language when it is necessary to point towards the qualitative character of some characteristic, e.g.: Природно, яка позищя - таю й резулътати (журн.).
The pronoun котрий is used in the case when it is necessary to underline the choice of some persons, objects or qualities in a row of homogeneous persons, objects or qualities, e.g.: Полювання з крякухою дуже добутливе, спокшне полювання, особливо для мисливщв, Kompi еже в лЫах, котрим уже бродити по болотах та лазити по очеретах, сказать би, важкувато (О. Вишня).
The relative pronoun чий points towards the object belonging and is used mainly in a bookish style. Pronouns xmo, що correlate with nouns: xmo with the person, що — either with a person or with some object; сктъки correlates with the numeral [15; 165].
Following is the contrastive analysis of relative pronouns in both languages. In English the role of relative pronouns that are used as a means of joining complex sentences is performed by interrogative pronouns who, which, whose, what and pronouns that, as; in Ukrainian - only interrogative pronouns xmo, який, котрий, що. Being used in the function of the connecting word they at the same time perform the function of the subjective member of the sentence (the subject or the attribute).
Relative sentences similar to interrogative sentences differentiate the person and the non-person (особу i не особу). In English this differentiation is revealed in contrasting of who and which (and by interrogative who - what), in Ukrainian xmo - що. Who (Ukr.

хто) is used regarding persons, and which - regarding inanimate objects and animals.
The pronoun whose is usually placed before the noun, whereas the corresponding Ukrainian pronoun is mainly put after the noun:
That is the girl whose brother works at out institute. -
Це дгвчина, брат якоИ працюе в нашому тститутг.
The pronoun that can refer both to living beings and to inanimate objects. In this respect it remains of the Ukrainian relative pronoun що:
The article that I translated ... - Стаття, що я переклав .... The doctor that I visited ... - Шкар, що його я eideidae ... [5; 65-66].
