Relative pronouns
In short:

1. Who is used to refer to people -> use whom after prepositions
2. Which is used to refer to animals / things / parts of a sentence
3. That can sometimes -but not always!- be used to replace who or which
4. Whose indicates possession of either a person or a thing

Watch out!
'waar’ is only translated with ‘where’ if you're actually talking about a place

But not:
  • Dat was het moment waar ik op had gewacht.
  • that was the moment which/that I had been waiting for.

woorden zoals waarmee/met wie, waarover/over wie, waarop/op wie etc.
