When to Use "Whose" vs. "Who's"
Whose
- Function: Possessive form of "who"
- Use: To indicate that something belongs to or is associated with someone
- Example:
- Whose book is this? (Asking about ownership)
- I met a woman whose car was stolen.
Who's
- Function: Contraction of "who is" or "who has"
- Use: To combine "who is" or "who has" in a shorter form
- Example:
- Who's coming to the party? (Who is coming)
- Who's finished their homework? (Who has finished)
Quick Tip:
- If you can replace the word with "who is" or "who has" , use "who's".
- If you are showing possession, use "whose".
