What is the correct grammar for the following sentence He enters the driver's side door or He enters the drivers' side door?
The correct grammar is "He enters the driver's side door." This indicates that he is entering the door on the side of the driver of the vehicle.
Which pronoun is correct in the sentence It was hehim at the door?
The correct form is "It was he at the door." Though correct, many people do not use this form in modern English, especially when spoken, because it sounds stilted and stuffy to them. One way to get around this is to use a slightly different form, saying "He was at the door." This form also confirms that he is the correct form of the pronoun to use, since it is generally easier to see that "Him was at the door" is incorrect.Another way to get around the "it was he" construction is to use a proper name or description instead of the pronoun. For example, "It was Harry at the door" or "It was the hitchhiker at the door."
