Question

The researcher ---- the grant was awarded had published only two papers at the time.

Accepted Answer

to whom — 'The grant was awarded to the researcher' anlamı vardır; edat ilgi zamirinin önüne geldiğinde nesne durumundaki 'whom' biçimi kullanılır ve 'to whom' ortaya çıkar. Edat + 'that' birleşimi kullanılmaz. Tek başına 'whom' ise cümlede boşta kalan 'to' edatını karşılamaz.
