Grammar notes

Where Is for Places (Relative Clauses: Where)

Use where when the noun is a place.

It adds extra information about that place in a natural way.

This is useful when you want one sentence instead of two.

• Example: This is the park where we play.
• Example: That is the town where my grandma lives.

Quick Rule

• use where for places
• put it after the place noun

If the sentence is about a place, where usually knows the way.
