These words(who , whose ,.....) are called relative pronouns .we use them to join between two sentences.

John is a teacher who teaches in the university
who= with human being
whose for possessive
He is Tom .His father is a doctor
He is Tom whose father is a doctor
Whom = for object
This is the man.I met him
This is the man whom I met
Where= for a place
This is a Place where i used to play cricket

it's up to use use whom or who
now in modern language they use who
and they use whom rarely

Hi all,
Could you please explain how to use "WHOSE and WHOM"?
I still confuse it.
Many thanks,
Best regards,

Whose is a questioning word, usually associated with possessions or actions
"Whose is that car? "
"Whose books are these? "
" Who's (who has) left the window open? "
Whom is usually associated with persons.
" To whom it may concern.
" Might I ask, to whom did you speak yesterday? "
Kitos.

Not quite. The word "whose" is possessive:
- Whose car is that? = Who is the owner of that car?
- He is a man whose opinion I value. = He is a man. I value his opinion.
The word "who's" is a contraction of two words. The contracted word can be either is or has. The context of the sentence will tell you whether the contracted word is has or is:
- Who's on first base? (who is)
- I don't know who's making all that noise. (who is making)
- Who's been eating my porridge? (who has been eating)

| Hold no brief for someone | Why do you use 'got' in "I have got to"? |
