English Grammar: How To Use “Most of Whom” and “Most of Which”?

 


Learning English is pretty hard if we do not understand the main rule which is grammar.

In English language, there are tons of grammar that we need to memorize and comprehend well in order to create well sentences in English.

Here, we will talk about grammar using “Most of Which” and “Most of Whom”.

“Most Of...”

"Most of..." is a prepositional phrase, to express the majority of a specific set of something. The formula of it is “Most of the + noun”.

Example     :

1. There are so many table in the class. Most of the table is brown.

2. I have lost most of my CD player after moving out

“Whom...”

In English, one of the question mark that we usually use to ask the name of someone, or the identity of other is using “Who”. For example: “Who is your teacher?”

On the other hand, “Whom” is an objective pronoun. It is used to express the object in a sentence or phrase.

Example     :

1. I visited the doctor whom you suggested me to

2. Think about whom you want to ask to go to the party

3. To whom did you give the pen?

4. With whom are you going to the training program?

“Most Of Whom...”

Since the word of “Most of” is followed by ‘noun’, then in some cases, we can use Most of whom to express the objective pronoun from the majority of specific people that include personal pronoun (she, he, they)

Example     :

1. I have five friends, most whom are friendly and easy going

2. I have ten co-workers, most of whom are coming from other cities.

“Most of Which”

On the other hand, we can also express the majority of specific set of things such as table, chair, book, etc.

Example     :

1. I have lots of notebooks, most of which are bought recently

2. I have twelve assigned papers, most of which are still in progress

3. I have some tasks to do, most of which can be done at home

That is the explanation about “Most of Whom” and “Most of Which”. 

Hopefully it will be beneficial for all of you!
