These pronouns, such as "yang," "di mana," and "siapa," function similarly to their English counterparts "who," "which," and "where." Understanding how to use these pronouns correctly can significantly enhance your ability to construct complex sentences and convey more precise meanings in your conversations and writing. Mastering the use of relative pronouns in Malay not only improves grammatical accuracy but also enriches your language proficiency, making your speech and writing more fluid and natural.
