Who or whom?

Who is the subject, whom is the object. The reliable test is to answer the question with he or him: if him fits, use whom. To whom did you speak — I spoke to him. Who called — he called. In everyday speech who is now normal in both roles, but whom is still expected after a preposition and in formal writing.
