Why are the years in feet?
It probably annotates abbreviation of the full year 1985 1986 1987, etc, so people don’t get confused and think Tom Cruise was 87 when he married Mimi Rogers.
I can’t say if it’s a good or bad annotation, but theres a possible explanation.
But don’t you put that on the left, to replace the “19” or “20”?
yeah whomever made this just put them on the wrong side
Just to be pedantic, you should use “whoever” there, not “whomever.”
To tell whether to use “who” or “whom,” replace it with “he” or “him” and follow the ‘m.’
“he made this” vs “him made this”

i know
Omg thank you for this!!! I never understood when whom would ever be used!!
Can I get an example for whomever please? My brain is slow today but like learning new grammar tips.
Sure!
“If I’m asked, I’ll give grammar tips to whomever.”
Whomever is tough, because often this would be constructed as “I’ll give grammar tips to whoever asks.” And you would use “who” there, because “whoever” is the subject of the clause “whoever asks.”
Generally speaking, it’s usually safe to pick “whoever” over “whomever.”
But if you drop the “-ever” it’s a lot easier. Anywhere you’d use “him” (that is, the objective pronoun), you use “whom.” To whom, for whom, by whom, etc.
Thanks. This is amazing and just what I needed to understand the differences. Appreciate you taking the time.
Idk why or who makes the conventions. It might be a required format, kind of like how you’re supposed to start numbering pages in APA after the title page.
