Phyxius said:While the above sentence is not ungrammatical you really shouldn't end a sentence with a preposition.
Actually, that has changed. In fact, it was never an actual "rule", as there is no official, governing body for the English language. There are rule books, but they often differ, as there is no official organisation to oversee our language. The French actually have a government office whose sole job is to keep the French language pure!
The newest way of handling the preposition-at-the-end-of-a-sentence is to go ahead with it if it causes the sentence to otherwise be awkward.
And now back to your regularly scheduled programme. . . .
