Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.
Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.
These are what are called pronoms relatifs. They connect two clauses.
X que Y
Or X qui Y
If X is the object, you use que. Example: la fille que je vois. (The object "la fille" is being seen by the subject "je").
If X is the subject, you use qui. Example: le garçon qui mange la pomme. (The subject "le garçon" is eating the object "la pomme".
A trick to determine which to use is to look at what follows the pronom relatif.
Is it a verb, then you use qui: le garçon qui mange la pomme
Is it a noun or a subject pronoun, then you use que:
- la fille que je vois. (Subject pronoun je)
- le livre que l'école m'a fourni. (Noun l'école)
Also, in your original question you seem to put a lot of emphasis on 'and' (que AND qui). Were you asking how to use both of them in the same sentence?
TLDR:
QUE + Subject
Le train QUE je(subject) prends
The train THAT i take
QUI + VERBE (of aforementioned subject)
Le mec QUI a 19 ans
The guy WHO is 19 years old
Que nom / qui verbe 🤔👌
