Rule 9: The common blunder is the use of a singular verb form in a relative clause following “one of…” or a similar expression when the relative is the subject.
My sentence: Emile Durkheim is one of those people who has helped others understand social facts.
Rule 10: The personal pronouns, as well as the pronoun who, change form as they function as subject or object.
My sentence: Karl Marx is the sociologist whom we think of when we talk about social class.
grammar looks good. maybe a "tag" on social facts, with three examples of social facts.
ReplyDeletealso better not call Marx a sociologist - he'd roll over in his grave. call him a social theorist.
