Pied-piping is a linguistic phenomenon that occurs in certain constructions of English, particularly in relation to wh-questions and relative clauses. The term refers to the process of moving a focal element, often a wh-word (like "who," "what," "where," etc.), along with its associated phrase or condition, which typically contains additional information relevant to the question being asked or the clause being formed.
