Interrogative pronoun

An unknown (wh-) person

  • Who did you see?
  • Hmm... who should we get to do this?


Relative pronoun

  • Marla is the one who is supposed to be doing this, not me!
  • She is the person who volunteered.

Object pronoun: whom

  • The person whom I thought was responsible was not in fact to blame.
  • Ask not for whom the bell tolls.
  • To whom it may concern:

whom has fallen into disuse except when following a preposition.
