(the conjunction 'that' is joining the two independent clauses)A pronoun DOES start a DEPENDENT clause.A dependent clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb but is not a complete thought.A relative pronoun introduces a relative clause (a dependent clause that starts with a relative pronoun) gives information about its antecedent.The relative pronouns are: who, whom, whose, which, that.Example: The shoes that I bought will match the new suit.
