What are the rules for usage of who vs whom in proper english?
340063
To choose correctly among the forms of 'who', re-phrase the sentence so you choose between 'he' and 'him'. \nIf you want 'him', write 'whom'; \nif you want 'he', write 'who'. \n\nEXAMPLES:\nWho do you think is responsible? \n(Do you think he is responsible?) \n\nWhom shall we ask to the party? \n(Shall we ask him to the party?)

As I live and breath, I surprise you asked. When you say essential to whom or for what is it essential?

It depends on which is the "subject", and which is the "predicate". "With" would presume association, whilst "By" would suggest Participation.

Yeah, it is correct to say "one" or "a person". It's so much easier just to say "you" tho. I always find myself tripping up on that. I think most people use "you" the wrong way.

I was taught a simple way to know which is correct.  Say the sentence without the other person's name. As in: "Me & Kathy went to the store" becomes: "Me went to the store." Obviously "Me" is incorrect.  Another: "It was a secret known only by me & Kathy". Becomes: "It was a secret known only to me". In this case "me" is correct.\nThis works every time!

Perhaps one easy way to help you distinguish and remember: look at the word their or there without the T.  There - T = here (a location)  Their-t = heir (a person).   \n\nThere always refers to a place.  Their always refers to a person or persons.

I  - first person singular ;    we - first person plural\n\nyou - second person singular;  you - second person plural\n\nhe, she, it - third person singular; they - 3rd pers. plural

Firstly, learn how to formulate a question. e.g. When are "in behalf" and "on behalf" used. Simple grammar. On behalf is used when e.g. someone is acting for someone, i.e they are acting on their behalf. I don't know of any usage for "in behalf"

You can, of course, use the "one" - or even the imperial "we" - if you so choose; however, both sound stilted and condescending.  Even the grammatically correct answer to "Who is it?" - "It is I." - sounds stilted.  I suggest you read the very funny, somewhat new grammar book: EATS,SHOOTS,AND LEAVES; the answers to most current grammar/syntax questions can be found within.\n\nBest of luck,\n-MomBear

It is incorrect. It should read, "Should you have any questions or need further assistance, please contact Joe Blow or me."\n\nOne way to determine this is to remove one of the two persons you are referring to. In this instance you are referring to yourself and Joe Blow. Take out Joe blow and you get, "Should you have any questions or need further assistance, please contact myself."\n\nThat doesn't make any sense. Replace 'myself' with 'me' and you have a sentence that makes sense. Now put Joe in front of you and you have a complete, grammatically correct sentence.

Use whose if it's an adjective:  Whose car is that?\nUse who if it's a subject:  Who wants to go to the movies?\nUse whom if it's an object of a verb or preposition:  To whom does that car belong?

Just to add my two cents...\n\nDon't get too caught up on when to use "who" or "whom"...especially in informal speech.  There is always an appropriate time and place for such "niceties"…”With whom do you think you are messing”…it just doesn’t have the same punch, does it?…but I digress, and it is important to know the rules before you break them…\n\nThe guidance others give about trying to substitute “he” for “who” and “him” for “whom” (or “she” for “who” and “her” for “whom”—my lame attempt at not being sexist!) is a good way to go.  I always ask myself, “WHO is doing what to WHOM?”  \n\nThere are sometimes when it gets down right confusing, so in these circumstances, I would suggest stripping the sentence down to its most basic parts (subject, verb, object) and (especially when the problem sentence is a question) switch the order of the words; e.g., “WHO/WHOM are you going to invite to the party?” could be switched to “YOU are going to invite WHO/WHOM to the party,” which when using the she/who/him/whom rule becomes “You are going to invite HER to the party?”  So in this example, the correct sentence would be, “Whom are you going to invite to the party?”\n\nAnd since we are on rules, I would just add the while the objective-case pronoun “whom” is used as an object…it is not typically used as a direct object as stated above, but as an indirect object…but again, I digress…\n\n_____\n\n"Whom" does NOT always follow a preposition:  "You are giving whom a present?" or  "You are giving away whom?"

I is the subjective case of first person pronoun, me is the objective case of first person pronoun, my is the possessive. Subjects of a sentance are always subjective. Ben and I are going to the Bar. Objective case is used when the noun is the object of a preposition, prepostional phrase, or verb. The bartender gave free drinks to Ben and me. \n\n"To" is a preposition and requires an objective case. Most nouns do not change between cases i.e. "the plane" is both a subjective form of "plane" and objective form. \n\nThe same process works out with "who" and "whom." Who goes to the bar?  The drinks are given to whom?

The who's-who list is a list of notable people listed according to categories. For example, who's who in science, who's who in medicine?, etc.

All are correct. Traditionally, 2 and 3 are correct. The word "whom" nowadays is sometimes considered dated (not used anymore, or very rarely used). "Whom" is in modern English replaced by "who". However, the word "whom" is sometimes still used in formal contexts (formal speeches, formal letters, contracts, etc).\n\nConversationally, no. 1 is used. If you use no. 2, 3 and 4 in a conversation, it will sound funny. To answer your question, no. 3 is the most grammatically correct, but not quite acceptable conversationally. You cannot use no. 4, but still can use no. 2.\n\nA lot of English speakers do not speak English properly, so you must accept the fact that although no. 1 is not 100% correct gramatically, and no. 3 is correct grammatically, no. 1 is more acceptable conversationally than no. 3.
