HOW TO REMEMBER : RELATIVE PRONOUNS ( use of WHO/WHOM/WHOSE )


 3.WHO/WHOM/WHOSE


These pronouns are used in accordance with the case. "Who" is used as the subject of the verb and "whom" is used as the object of the verb/preposition.

Examples:

  • This is the man who stole my purse. (Nominative) 
  • This is the man whom I longed to meet. (Objective).
  • This is the man whose life was shattered after the earthquake. (Possessive)


4. WHAT "What" is used instead of "that which". "What" does not assume a possessive case.


Examples:

  •  What happened at the hospital is known only to me. (Nominative)
  • Why don't you practice what you preach? (Objective)


                                                                 To be continue...👍
