Asked on April 17, 2021 in Grammar.
Both options listed by the original poster sound natural to my (American) ear. Which one is more natural to me than “who”? If a man did not accept what they were ten
years ago, he must have died.
I would avoid “who”. I try to avoid making decisions between “who” and “whom”. How will I distinguish between who and whom interrupt my thoughts, both when speaking a sentence (or writing) and when reading a sentence (see fig. 2.8)?
In other words, the choice between “who” and “whom” is consciously learned, not natural (in American English).
