fuddu (Question: 392540.3 )

fuddu solution

Question:

DIRECTIONS: In the given questions a part of the sentence is underlined. Below are given alternatives to the underlined part at (a), (b), (c) and (d) which may improve the sentence. Choose the correct alternative. 

If I were him I would not have accepted the offer.

Options:
A)

If I was him    

B)

If I were he

C)

If I had he    

D)

No improvement

Solution:

Ans: (b) "He" the subject pronoun is required because it is the subject complement and not the object.

The pronoun that follows a linking verb is and should be a subject complement, not an object. 

"Were" is a linking verb (the verb to be in subjunctive mood). That is why we use the subject pronoun "he" and not the object pronoun "him".
