Erroneous reversion
Hello. Your edit on Appendix:Proto-Germanic/hwaz was an incorrect reversion, and, therefore, I have reverted it. Velociraptor888 (talk)
It said "for who", and I changed it to "for whom". I was just fixing a minor grammatical error. You reverted it, so I reverted it back.
I know about the distinction between who and whom, and I know that who is widely used instead of whom, but I was thinking that such websites as this should have correct grammar. It just makes sense. I think that on these websites, the most formal and correct grammar should, if possible, be used. Sorry if I'm being rude or anything. Saying stuff like "Who did you see?" is OK for informal speech, albeit incorrect according to prescriptivists, but websites like this, I believe, should try to keep all speech correct and formal. If I'm assuming anything in a wrong manner, I apologize. I may just be making assumptions and suchlike.
I disagree. Wiktionary should be accessible to everyone, so we should use the forms of speech that are accessible to many people. That means we should avoid using formal language and use plain, everyday straightforward neutral-tone language. whom is distinctly formal and archaising in tone, and therefore not appropriate.
As for what is "correct", this is not a concern of Wiktionary because we only describe language, not prescribe. As far as Wiktionary is concerned, who is always ok to use, because that's what people actually use.
