    which/whose
    Message de thedoms posté le 03-11-2009 à 07:47:38 (S | E | F)

    Hello,

    I don't understand why the answer "which" is not correct in the third question :

    I wrote
    The room WHICH windows look onto the garden is mine

    The answer is :
    The room WHOSE windows look onto the garden is mine

    And in the lesson they said that whose is for the people and which for the things.

    Thanks
    Dominique

    Bonjour.
    Lisez attentivement la leçon:
    which = qui/que
    whose / of which = dont
    La phrase est :
    The room WHOSE windows look onto the garden is mine
    La pièce DONT la fenêtre donne sur le jardin est la mienne.
    A++
