Lol .. I can live with grammatical errors (I know I do my fair share) .. it's the folks who have a conversation using text "shorthand" that drives me crazy.

Your = ur, etc.

Its the text generation

Yes.

But can you answer them correctly?

I'm unsure of #3. Because we are talking about lawyers, I want to say 'whom', but I'm pretty sure the answer is 'who'. And yes, I can start that sentence with 'because', (and this one with 'and'...)

How did I do?

Whom - used to introduce a relative clause giving information about a person or people
Ex: Birch and her colleagues studied 162 infants, none of whom were born prematurely
.
Who - used to introduce a question asking about the name or identity of a person or people.
Ex: Who's that at the door?

Substitute “he/him” or “she/her”: If it's either “he” or “she,” then it's “who;” if it's “him” or “her,” then it's “whom.”

Thank you, but now I'm even more confused... Again, I think it's 'who'...

Neither "he" nor "him" fits in number 3.

I usually just say 'who' all the time, and I'm resigned to being wrong about 10% of the time, heh!
