I don't suppose you know...........I have to see about this sitıation, do you?

A)that
B)who
C)what
D)--
E)where

Sorry to bother you again with another question. "A","B" "C" seem to be possible answers within their proper contexts.

"A" seems reasonable considering "see about" is a phrasal verb meaning "making arrangements or to deal with something". In addition; "that" starts a noun clause.

"B" seems reasonable as a "realtive pronoun"

"C" seems reasonable as a noun clause

mind if I take your comments on it? Thanks !

B), and I prefer whom in formal contexts. situation=job, position in some contexts thus it might be seeing someone about a job However, it might be about a problem. Still B, seeing the person in charge.

Hi Marius,

What makes "A" and "C" wrong?

Only C is wrong.  I can't think of a context where we'd say "I don't suppose you know what I have to see about this sitıation, do you?"   I suppose someone might say "what" as a derogatory meaning for a person, but it's not a normal expression.  Can explain that a bit more if you need me to.

Thank you Tidus,

I think it is very likely to find a suitable context for "A" .What do you think? And I wonder what your contexts are for"D" "---" and  "E" "where
