Help me with a few grammar rules

<p>Can you explain us when exactly we use ''who'' and ''whom'' <em>with examples</em> </p>

<p>Which way is more gramatically correct to start a sentance with : ''In both high school and in college people respected me..'' or ''both in high school and in college people respected me..''</p>

<p>1) "who" is for subjects. "whom" is for objects.<br>
ex:<br>
Who was the top scorer?<br>
To whom shall the prize be awarded?</p>

<p>2) I think it'd be the first one if you said "In both high school and college, people respected me.." I don't think you need the second "in"</p>

<p>Ok thank you</p>

<p>Protip: Whom = Him/Her</p>

<p>But they rarely include that in the SATs?</p>

<p>so if i take out whom</p>

<p>and put him/her</p>

<p>...that dosent sound right at all though</p>

<p>@stuntburn - turn the question into a statement, then replace.</p>

<p>_____ does this belong to?
It belongs to HIM. (so use WHOM)</p>

<p>_____ wrote this letter?
HE wrote this letter. (so use WHO)</p>

<p>This isn't a perfect rule, but typically works.</p>

<p>ooo k thnx alot</p>

<p>wow
