That makes me think of US vs UK English:
Color/colour
Favorite/favourite
Aluminum/aluminium
"Whom" is proper in both American and UK English...
Yes indeed, but I don't know if I'd need both hands to count the number if Americans I've heard use "whom" in a sentence outside of English class, let alone used it correctly. I don't even feel I see it written often here.
American here: no idea how or when to use whom. Keep reading about it, but, uh, can never remember which is which.
I only had one teacher that taught it well, so I'm glad I liked her as a teacher and paid attention.
Who/whom and I/me I find work well when trying to make substitutions.
Check out these guides to see what I mean.
Thank you!!
Of course! It's never too late to learn how to do something!
Whom is never correct.
Edit: y'all need to watch the office
Sounds more like YOU'RE never correct.
Ryan used me as an object.
Whom told you that?
