Two grammatical questions
Q1: John is your friend, isn't he?
(a) Yes, he is.
(b) Yes, it is.
(c) He is.
(d) No, he is.
The correct answer is (a), but how about (c)? I think it can also be correct if the respondent pronounce it, like "He IS." What do you think?
Q2: His father won't allow him to marry her till he knows ( ) she really is.
The correct answer is 'what,' but I think 'who' is also correct. What is your opinion? And, which do you think is more appropriate to this question?
(a) Yes, he is.
(b) Yes, it is.
(c) He is.
(d) No, he is.
The correct answer is (a), but how about (c)? I think it can also be correct if the respondent pronounce it, like "He IS." What do you think?
