godG: It is important for you to know that they are both pronouns.

'Who' mostly functions as the subject in a sentence. A subject in a sentence is the person or thing that is influencing the verb (or action) in the sentence. It cines before the Predicator (Verb).
Example:
1. Who is there?
S. P. A. (Subject. Predicator. Adverbial.)

'Whom' is used as the object of a verb. It cones after the Predicator (verb). An Object is like the receiver of an action and some prepositions like to, by, for, etc. are used occasionally with 'whom'.

Examples:
2. To whom | was | it |given?
O. P. S. P.

The example above can be rephrased to be:

a. It |was given |to whom?
S. P. O.
b. It | was given| to Ali.
S. P. O.
c. It | was given| him.
S. P. O.

Here is a trick, if you see a question and you can answer it with 'him' or 'her' use whom and if you can answer with s/he, use who. Look at these:

3. To [who/whom] shall we give?
Our answer here can be him/her, hence 'whom'. If you also notice it, you will see that the question starts with a preposition. Isn't it?

4. [Who/whom] saw the snake?
Here, we can say s/he and not 'him' or 'her'.
a. S/he saw the snake. So the best option is 'who'.

Hope this is understood. If still confused, let me know.
thanx a bunch

kingthreat: Well the question is why are they in Ebonyi? You know better that ever since the amnesty programme, the Easterners have been responsible for 90% of kidnapping crimes in the country. Why not just accept fact and reorient your youths on this money-lust that holds no bound.
the only thing u people know how to do is to lie lie lie
