Whom is not used very often in spoken English.Who is usually used as the object pronoun, especially in questions.在口语中，whom 不常用，通常用 who 作宾格代词，尤其在疑问句中 ：◆ Who did you invite to the party? 你邀请了哪些人来参加聚会？ The use of whom as the pronoun after prepositions is very formal.* whom 作代词置于介词后的用法非常正式 ：◆ To whom should I address the letter? 这封信我该写给谁呢？ ◆ He asked me with whom I had discussed it. 他问我和谁讨论过此事。 In spoken English it is much more natural to use who and put the preposition at the end of the sentence.在口语中，疑问词用 who，将介词置于句末更自然 ：◆ Who should I address the letter to? 这封信我该写给谁呢？ ◆ He asked me who I had discussed it with. 他问我和谁讨论过此事。 In defining relative clauses the object pronoun whom is not often used. You can either usewho orthat , or leave out the pronoun completely.在限定性关系从句中，宾格代词 whom 不常用，可用 who 或 that 或干脆省去代词 ：◆ The family (who/that/whom) I met at the airport were very kind. 我在机场遇见的这家人非常友好。 In non-defining relative clauses who or, more formally,whom (but notthat ) is used and the pronoun cannot be left out.在非限定性关系从句中，要用 who 或更正式的 whom（但不能用 that），而且此代词不能省略 ：◆ Our doctor, who/whom we all liked very much, retired last week. 我们的医生上周退休了，我们都很爱戴他。 This pattern is not used very much in spoken English. 此句型在英语口语中不很常用。
