MTTC Elementary Education Cert 1 - Free Test Sample Questions

Directions: In the sentence below, select the underlined portion that contains an error.

Mary and her sister Martha were arguing about whom was the harder worker.





Correct Answer:
about whom
in the sentence "mary and her sister martha were arguing about whom was the harder worker," the error occurs in the underlined portion "about whom."

the correct answer is "c" and the proper phrasing should be "about who." the confusion often arises from deciding when to use "who" versus "whom." here is a brief explanation to clarify this common grammatical issue:

"who" is used as a subject pronoun, while "whom" is used as an object pronoun. this means "who" is appropriate when it is the subject of a verb, and "whom" is used when it is the object of a verb or a preposition.

in the phrase "about whom was the harder worker," "whom" appears to be linked as the object of the preposition "about." however, the critical aspect to focus on is the clause "who was the harder worker." here, the pronoun is actually the subject of the verb "was." therefore, "who" is the correct form to use, not "whom."

the correct sentence should read: "mary and her sister martha were arguing about who was the harder worker." here, "who" correctly serves as the subject of the clause "who was the harder worker," maintaining proper grammatical structure.

understanding the distinction between "who" and "whom" can be tricky, but remembering that "who" acts as a subject and "whom" as an object can generally guide correct usage.
