You are welcome.

Still use the he/him method and you will get the correct answer.

[andradecita]

you made it easy thx

[princessrobin25]

oh!..u explain it very simple!..and easy to understand!..thank you for teaching!..

[janestraus]

There is no need to discuss who/whom with prepositions as my method works well and easily with this situation. Example:To who/whom am I speaking? Answer: I am speaking to him. whom=him To whom am I speaking?

[imhood37]

You should also talk about prepositions in questions automatically make it whom.4 Also,you can't always use this rule;you'll eventually need to learn the subjective (who) version,and the objective (Whom) version to have them written correctly in a sentence every time,this is a nice tip to learn it easily though.

[janestraus]

[fitimio001]

I was soo confused on this, because i was trying to study the act. This clears it up! Thank you very much.

[janeruthstraus]

Since not everyone watches all the videos, I offer people the book as a resource in each one.

[yannybaby]

Why are you plugging your book on each video...tiring!

[janeruthstraus]

Perhaps the use of "whom" will be considered optional in the not-too-distant future. The last ones hanging on to the distinction between "who" and "whom" may be English teachers and lovers of traditional language usage. Thanks for writing.

[tarnopol]

Agreed, completely. I'd love to see this case holdover die! :)

[edgewalker3]

I think the thing that gets people is whether "whom" is required, or whether it is an optional use.
