How do I use WHOSE? This is tricky for me
How do I use WHOSE?

Which of the following example(s) is correct:

  1. 1. “Whose on the Titanic’s List of Passengers…” (without a question mark); or
  2. 2. “Whose who on the Titanic’s List of Passengers…” (also without a question mark); or
  3. 3. “Who’s who on the Titanic’s List of Passengers…” (also without a question mark).

These questions have been bugging me for quite a long time! Thanks.

Heart Rendering without cement?

Hi Teena,

Heart rendering without cement - which word should I use?Like the site, short and snappy, tells me what I want to know with just enough to tell me why it’s the right answer.

One I’ve come across a couple of times recently is the use of ‘heart-rendering’ instead of ‘heart-rending’ with the meaning of invoking deep emotion. Heart-rendering would surely be something done by a butcher!

Thanks again for a great quick reference, invaluable at work.
