Aliquis est quam does not represent a complete sentence, so it's hard to know exactly how to translate it. Quam can mean either "whom" or "than", and there's no way to tell which is intended without knowing the rest of the sentence (though "whom" is statistically more likely). For example:

  • Aliquis est quam amo - There is someone whom I love.
  • Aliquis est quam vita ipsa mihi carior - There is someone dearer to me than life itself.

If quam is "whom", we know that the "someone" referred to is female (otherwise it would be quem).
