  1. WHO BATTLES WHOM BY JOSHUA ALLBRITTEN

  2. SUBJECTIVE CASE I YOU SHE HE IT WE WHO THEY OBJECIVE CASE ME YOU HIM HER IT US WHOM THEM In grammar, there are several types of case including subjective and objective casepronouns: who is the subjective case and whom is the objective case that for all practical purposes, take the place of s/he and him/her respectively.

  3. We know and recognize these pronouns because we use them in everyday language She is the one (who,whom) I'd choose to represent me. (Who,Whom) did you select to represent you? Sam Smith is the one (who,whom) the police say is guilty. (Who,Whom) did you say is the managing partner in that firm?

  4. THE EASY TEST The best way to decide between who/whom is to extract the relevant clause and to identify the choice as subject or object. For example: She is the one (who,whom) I'd choose to represent me. BECOMES

  5. who/whomI would choose to represent me She is the one Extract the relevant clause

  6. (who, whom) I’d choose to represent me I is the subject Would choose is the verb phrase Who/whom is the direct object To better illustrate this, we can rearrange the sentence I would choosewho/whom to represent me

  7. Click on the best answer I’d choose (Who Whom) to represent me

  8. This is not the best answer, try the substitution method Try substituting another familiar direct object pronoun for who/whom such as she or her I’d choose she/ her to represent me She is the subjective case pronoun as is who Her is the objective case pronoun as is whom

  9. THAT WAS THE BEST CHOICE

  10. Click on the correct answer Who, Whom did you select to represent you?

  11. For a question sentence, rearrange the sentence into the more familiar subject/verb form you to represent you? Who, Whom select did becomes Now substitute she/her

  12. THAT WAS THE BEST CHOICE

  13. Click on the best answer who, whom Sam Smith is the one the police say is guilty

  14. Now this one is a bit more difficult you cannot use the substitution method Sam Smith is the one(who,whom) the police say is guilty. Is is a big equal sign in that the subject and who, whom are the same person Sam Smith isWho, whom

  15. THAT WAS THE BEST CHOICE

  16. Click on the best answer Who, Whom did you say is the managing partner in that firm?

  17. This sentence you need to apply both rules before you choose the right answer (Who,Whom) did you say is the managing partner in that firm? You did saywho, whom is the managing partner in that firm. The relevant clause is “who, whom is the managing partner in that firm” which is the direct object of “You did say” but the subject of the clause

  18. THAT WAS THE BEST CHOICE TEKS
