Mind Your Language - 21st June 2018

Who vs Whom


A subject is doing the action of the sentence: She threw the ball.
She is the subject. The object has something done to it: the ball is the object.

Who = Subject, Whom = Object


“Who” functions as a subject: Who wants dinner? Who is going to the ball game?
“Whom” is the object of the verb or the preposition: Whom did you hit? To whom are you speaking?
