Definition: (interrogative) What person or people; which person or people.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look!
You’ve stumbled upon a word that sometimes makes folks frown, “Whom.” It’s tricky, I know, but we'll turn it around.
The dictionary tells you, with a helpful plea,
That ‘whom’ asks about
people
, you see!
It’s asking "Who" – but with a twist and grace,
Specifically referring to a particular face!
Think of it this way, a little rhyme will do:
“Whom” is used when
you
are asking “Who's true?”
Like, "To whom does this gift belong?" you’ll find,
It’s not just ‘who,’ but the person behind!
It's about the receiver of an action, a deed,
A role in a sentence – planting a seed.
"Whom" is the object, it’s clear and bright,
While "Who" is the actor, shining light!
Let's practice with some sentences, quick and neat,
To master this grammar, oh so sweet!
Do you remember? Any questions for me?
