Examples of nominative 'whom' errorneously used in embedded clauses.

This is a trick question, right? There is no such thing as nominative "whom", as far as I know!

Right, Jim! That's why I used the term "erroneously" immediately afterwards, but I should have put it this way:

"Examples of erroneous nominative "whom" used in embedded clauses."

Or rather:

"Examples of objective "whom" erroneously used nominatively in embedded clauses."

Thanks for pointing that out!

0 I think "whom" is more and more old-fashioned. Today, "who" can be used instead of "whom".0-
