5 English Interrogative Pronouns: WHO, WHOM, WHOSE, WHICH, WHAT

Learn when to use “who”, “whom”, “whose”, “which”, and “what” with clear rules, examples, and quick tricks for asking better questions in English. In this lesson I break down the five main interrogative pronouns – who, whom, whose, which, and what – and show simple rules and natural examples so you stop guessing and start asking questions correctly. I explain the difference between subject and object (so you’ll know when to use “who” or “whom”), how to ask about possession with “whose”, and the fast ways to decide between “which” and “what” in conversation and writing. You’ll also learn about using words like “whoever” and “whatever”. And finally, we’ll practice together with a little test.

Excuse me, but isn’t it WHOM the correct one for the question nr. 4? That one is an object, not subject of the action being done, thanks !
