How do you know whether you should use 'who' or 'whom' in a sentence?
The basic rule is this: Use the pronoun "who" when it is the subject of a clause and use "whom" when it is the object of a clause.Probably 90% of the places where you need to use "whom" are prepositional phrases. It's always "to whom", "from whom", "on whom", "with whom", "over whom", "of whom", since "whom" is the object of the preposition.If you are using the pronoun as the subject of the sentence, use "who". It's always, "Who is", "Who went", "Who did", "Who came", "Who left",Here's a trick to help remember: It's the same as the difference between "he" and "him". If a reply to your sentence would use "he", then your sentence should use "who"; if a reply to your sentence would use "him", then your sentence should use "whom". (Remember that "whom" and "him" both end with 'm'.) For example,"Who made this mess?" "He made this mess.""Who drove the car?" "He drove the car.""To whom did you give the keys?" "I gave them to him.""From whom did you hear that rumor?" "I heard it from him."Here's a tricky one--the subject is "you" and the object is "whom", but they're turned around:"Whom did you hit with a snowball?" "I hit him."
How do you use the word 'whom' in a sentence?
For whom the bell tolls.
To decide whether to use whom in a sentence see if you can replace it with what?
The pronoun 'whom' takes the place of a noun for a person.The pronoun 'whom' functions as an interrogative pronoun and a relative pronoun.The pronoun 'whom' functions as an object in a sentence, most commonly as the object of a preposition (to whom, by whom, with whom, etc.)The corresponding subject pronoun is 'who'.
When do you use the work Whom?
Ok - this is quite an easy one to remember. You use 'who' when the people that you are talking about are the object of your sentence and "whom' when they are the subject of your sentence. If you get confused, you can use a simple trick... If you can put HE or SHE in the place of who/whom, then you should use...WHO. Example: Bill, who was the boss of the company. He was the boss of the company. So, WHO is correct. If the sentence only makes sense with HIM or HER, then use WHOM. Example: John, whom she met at school. If you put HE in this type of sentence it looks silly...She met HE at school. So, it must be....She met HIM at school...so use WHOM.
Who and whom what one would i use in this sentence will you contact at headquarters?
The answer is whom. If you can replace it with he or she it's who, if it's him or her it's whom.
Whom did you laugh at?
The correct interrogative pronoun is 'who' as the subject of the sentence. The interrogative pronoun 'whom' is the objective form.

When to used who and whom?
"Who" is used as the subject of a sentence, while "whom" is used as the object. Use "who" when referring to the subject of a sentence (e.g., "Who is going to the party?"), and "whom" when referring to the object (e.g., "To whom did you give the gift?").
Is this correct 'whom is displayed in the'?
Since "whom" is the subject of the sentence, it should be "who" not "whom."And you need some sort of noun after "the."For example:Who is displayed in the window?If you want an example of how to use the word "whom," we need to change the sentence around:Whom did they display in the window?In this example, the subject is "they" and the object is "whom." So "whom" and not "who" should be used.

Guidelines in using who and whom?
Who and whom are precisely like he and him, or I and me. In formal writing, who is always the subject of a verb and whom is always the object of a verb or a preposition, but in complex sentences these relations may not always be obvious. For example : My friend, whom I know to be true, is here tonight. In this sentence whom is the object of the verb know. But: My friend, who I know is true, is here tonight. In this sentence, who is the subject of is, and the phrase I know is "absolute," that is grammatically outside of the sentence. If you are not sure whether to use who or whom, use who. Even if it is wrong, it is a lesser error than using whom incorrectly would be.
When to use 'whom'?
'Whom' is used as the object of a sentence, typically following a preposition or a verb. Use 'whom' when referring to the object of a verb or a preposition, while 'who' is used as the subject. For example, you would say "To whom did you give the book?" because 'whom' is the object of the preposition 'to.'
