Asked by Kelley

Do I use who or whom and why?

1. Are you ordering around?

2. Is ready with his or her report today?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Who is the subject.

Whom is the object.

The subject and verb for 1 is <u>You are ordering</u>.

The subject and verb for 2 is <u>Who is.</u>

Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes for the first one.

Neither who nor whom fit your last two sentences.
