1.(a)Statement .....:He works in a office.
..(b)Relative clause: 1.The office where he works (is for rent).
............................2.The office in which he works (is for rent).
Here,'where =in which'. and I think 'Where' is used as an adverb to mean 'in,on,at or to which' in relative clauses.
2.(a)Statement ......:He works near the office.
..(b)Relative clause :The office near where he works.
I think here 'where=the office'
My questions,
....1.Is 'where' used as a pronoun? (as 2.(b) )
....2.Can we us other prepositions of places (except 'in,on,at,to') with 'where' as 2.(b)?
............e.g: 1.The bridge under where we live..
..................2.The Beach behind where i am standing..
..................3.The shop next to(close to/before/opposite/in front of/etc..) where we live..:-D
