Hi,

I've been thinking I know well about the word order of "Who do you think ~~?".

But, recently, I happend to be not so sure about that....

Both the A and B are considered grammatical?

Do they mean something different?

Is it because it is a pronoun?

The only difference seems to be it is a pronoun.....
