Hey,
I am so confused about what I often see on the Internet. There are 2 different ways of use realative pronoun “who”.
I am looking forward to replying from those who HAS/IS…
OR
I am looking forward to replying from those who HAVE/ARE…
I have seen both forms in use and I am not sure which is truly, grammatically correct.
P.S can I use “those ones” instead of “those”, would it be correct?[/b]
Both sentences are incorrect due to the phrase “replying from.” It should read:
I am looking forward to receiving reply from those who HAVE/ARE…
The antecedent of the relative pronoun “who” is “those”, which is a plural demonstrative pronoun. Therefore, we need to use plural verb (HAVE/ARE).
Hi,
as you have used ‘those who have/are’, then it should be ‘… receiving replies…’
Thanks for pointing out that mistake, Beeesneees.
Also, those ones can’t be acceptable while those who is.
