formula: if the pronoun can be replaced by he or she, then use who. if the pronoun can be
replaced by him or her, then use whom (you can also look for the preposition).
That and Which ✔✔That uses a restrictive clause "gems that sparkle" or "dogs that bark scare
me" while Which uses a nonrestrictive clause "diamonds, which are expensive, often elicit
forgiveness" or "dogs, which make great pets, can be expensive".
,Not Only and But Also ✔✔When not only is followed by but also (or simply but), it's considered
