Question

who和whom的用法区别

Answer 1

whom和who都可用作疑问代词，who是主格，whom是宾格。另外whom和who同为定语从句的关系代词，如果定语从句的先行词是指人，我们用who或者whom作连接词。who用作从句的主语或宾语（通常在口语中）, whom只能作从句的宾语。

1.who和whom引导定语从句

ls he the man who wants to see you? 他就是想见你的人吗?(who在从句中作主语)

He is the man whom I saw yesterday. 他就是我昨天见的那个人。(whom在从句中作宾语)

2.whom和who作疑问代词

(1）Who saw the thief? 谁看见了那个小偷?(who做主格)

(2)Whom are you trying to fool? 你想愚弄谁啊?（whom做宾语）

(3）who不能直接用在介词后，whom可以。如:To whom is she writing?她在给谁写信?（to是介词）
