Whom of your sisters works in this firm?

19 Apr 2014

Apodo

I don �t use whom that way. I would say:

Which of your sisters works in this firm?

Is that the sister of whom you spoke? ( formal- �whom � isn �t used often these days)

I would use the same sentence as Apodo -"Which of your sisters works in this firm?"

As far as I know, whom is only used when it is a sentence object and also has a preposition before it, otherwise we use who.

For instance: Who did you buy that book for? (commonly used)

or For whom did you buy that book? (rarely used)
