Argument Between Mom And Son
Hello, recently I had just had a friendly arugement, we both think were correct but who actually is?
I was in my brothers room and he says, "mam, tell him to get out."
Mam goes "L** Get out, he's just being an idiot."
My mam says that she didnt say WHO was the idiot, she could of been refering to EITHER my or my brother.
I on the other hand, I think she was calling my brother an idiot.
Please can you give me an answer and a reason tov back it up please
Thanks....

If she addressed you, and told YOU to get out, then the HE in "he's being an idiot" can only apply to your brother. " and then paused and looked at your brother and said, "He's being an idiot," then the "he" is you.
