Ending a sentence
People used to say you could never end a sentence with a preposition, however, that it not always the case. If you can change the order of the words, great! Sometimes it can just make the sentence unclear.
For example: A senator is someone to whom most people upwardly look vs. A senator is someone most people look up to.
Is there another way we could word this to not have a preposition at the end?
