As well as being interrogative prionouns, что (what) and ктo (who) are also used as relative pronouns.
(А) Что is used as:
- a relative pronoun to всё (all, everything): У меня есть всё, что надо - I have everything (that) I need.
- it is also used with то (that) to link two parts of a sentence. Notice that both тo and чтo must decline according to the context:
Я расскажу вам о том, что я знаю.
I'll tell you about (that which) what I know.
Мы начнём с того, чем мы занимались вчера.
We'll start with what (literally 'from that which') we were busy with yesterday.
- it is used to 'sum up' a previous part of the sentence (i.e. it links up to the whole of the preceding clause):
Он рассказывал нам о своей поездке в Африку, что было очень интересно.
He told us about his trip to Africa, which was very interesting.
(В) Кто is used as a relative pronoun:
- after тот (the one...):
Тот, кто хочет прийти на вечеринку.
Whoever (literally 'the one who') wants to come to the party.
- after всe (everyone):
Я приглашаю всех, кто хочет прийти на вечеринку.
I invite all who want to come to the party.
Notice that ктo is always followed by a singular verb (as it is in English).
