The relative pronoun shows at one or many words, which are mentioned earlier.
Dalecarlian has only one such pronoun, which exists in two versions:

so,
sos.

The latter version is used in connection with the demonstrative pronoun summu (= the same).

The relative pronoun is not conjugated.

Examples of the use of the relative pronoun:

- Ságum ein film, so var ufljótt skral
(= We saw a movie, that was really bad),<p> - Kullañ, so sit þar, ir míñ dóttir
(= The girl, who sits there, is my daughter),<p> - Þeir m[oslash´]tti kalliñum og kellingini, so þeir byggði nest um miðsomårin
(= They met the man and the woman, whom they had stayed at during the midsummer celebrations),<p> - Heð var sagta summu bjór, sos ig hafr sétt eisin før
(= It was definitely the same beaver, which I had seen once before)
