whose在定語從句中充當什麼成分

whose意思是“誰的”，在定語從句中充當定語，所以whose後面可以接名詞，其先行詞可以是人也可以是物，比如：The woman whose son has gone abroad is my English teacher.

whose就是引導一個定語從句，並且本身在定語從句中承擔的成分也是定語.翻譯的時候常常是表示“誰的”這樣的所屬關係. 

比如：I like this house whose window faces east. 我喜歡這間房子，它的窗户是面朝東方的.

whose引導定語從句指定house，並且本身在該定語從句中做window的定語

whose 是定語從句中一個常用的關係代詞，表" …… 的"之意它可以指"人的"，也可以指"物的"既可以引導限制性定語從句，也可以引導非限制性定語從句.

一，whose + n .可作主語，賓語，功能與 which ，whom (who )相同.

如：

Mr King ，whose legs were badly hurt ，was quickly taken to hospital .

The boss in whose department Mr King worked had heard about the accident .

二，whose 既可引導限制性定語從句，又可引導非限制性定語從句.

如：

My uncle whose office we have just passed ，is a lawyer .我的叔叔是個律師，剛才我們經過他的辦公室 .

Once there was a wise king whose name was Alfred .從前有一個叫阿爾弗雷德的英國國王.

三，whose 代指"……的"，既可以指人，也可以指物.

如：

Look at the building ，whose roof is white .看那棟樓，樓頂的顏色是白的.

The girl lives in the house ，whose windows face south .那個女孩住在這所房子裏，房子的窗户是朝南開的.

四，whose 表所屬關係指物時，可與 of which 轉換，詞序一般是：名詞+ of which

Look at the building ，the roof of which ( = whose roof )is white .

The girl lives in the house ，the windows of which ( = whose windows )face south .

五，whose 不可與 of which (whom )轉換的'情況.

當 of 不具有"所屬"含義時，（如在 hear of ，be proud of ，be fond of ，be full of 等短語中，of 均不表"所屬"關係），只能用 of which (whom) 或 which (whom ，who )… of ，切不可盲目用 whose .

如：

Mary has been married to a scientist of whom you may have heard .(… < who / whom > you may have heard of … .) 瑪麗嫁給了一位科學家，你可能聽説過這個人.

She has a clever boy of whom she is proud .她有一個為之驕傲的聰明兒子.

六，whose 在定語從句中，有"所屬"含義，一般不再與其它限定詞羅列使用.

當 whose 表"所屬"含義時，其本身就是一個限定詞，相當於 one's （具體講是：my ，his ，her

its ，our ，your ，their …），而限定詞不可羅列在一起使用，whose 也不例外.

如：

John ，of whom my aunt is a distant cousin by marriage ，comes to see us sometimes .約翰有時來看看我們，他是我姑姑的一個遠房親戚.

WHOSE也可以引導定語從句，它相當於前面説的關係代詞的所有格形式。

例：She has an uncle . His name is Peter.

=She has an uncle whose name is Peter.

I like that house . Its location is good to me.

=I like that house whose location is good to me.

"WHOSE"引導定語從句的三原則:

①. whose 前要有先行詞

②. whose 後的名詞要做定語從句的主語或賓語

③， 否則whose前應有介詞，且該介詞也可移至定語從句的句尾
