	matthewg  +  48017 Wed, 29 Sep 04 02:52 PM According to Don McLean, there's no need for either who or whom: "...the three men I admire most..." Here is a quick answer by CalifJim, in this post: Quick answer: It is appropriate to use "whom" in formal writing after these words (prepositions): to, from, with, without, among, for, in, by, on, ... (and all other prepositions) There are other cases when "whom" is appropriate, but that means a very long answer. See the links suggested for more details.

	miriam  +  48021 Wed, 29 Sep 04 03:01 PM Hello, Hanuman "The person whom I admire" is the grammatically correct form. Also correct is the same structure without the relative pronoun: "The person I admire". By the way, the subject of your thread is "verb", but your question is about pronouns (relative pronouns): "who" and "whom". If you'd like to have a more detailed explanation of the use of "who" and "whom", you can have a look at this thread. Hope it helps.
