| Who or whom? Who becomes whom when it is the object of a sentence. Who is speaking? To whom is she speaking? An easy way to tell the difference is to switch around the words in the sentence and replace who with another pronoun. For example: Who is she speaking to? » She is speaking to (who/whom)? » She is speaking to we. - OR - She is speaking to them. |
