He had just started seeing his therapist. Let's build up to using who and whom in sentences by creating some examples to play with: It goes along with the other subjective pronouns, like he, she, we, and they. So the therapist is the object of the sentence.Ĭlear as mud? Let's take it to the next level. He's the one who “saw.” The therapist didn't see instead, he was seen. In this sentence, Kyle is still the subject. Put another way, the action is done to it. The object doesn't do the action of the verb. The object, on the other hand, often comes somewhere after the verb. The verb is “trembled.” Kyle, the noun, is the one who does the trembling.

The subject is the thing doing the verb's action. The subject is usually found at the very beginning of a sentence, and is closely followed by a verb. But they play different roles in a sentence. Subjects and objects are both nouns (or pronouns). I'll get there! But it'll be a lot easier to understand how to use those pronouns once we brush up on our subjects and objects. I know, I know, I'm not talking about who vs. Today, we're covering the apparent mother of all grammatical quandaries: who vs. whom. We avoided it as long as we could, but it was bound to come up sooner or later.
