your gave it to who? vs you gave it to whom?

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'You gave it to whom?' is the grammatically correct form when asking about the indirect object in a sentence. 'Your gave it to who?' is incorrect due to the mismatch between the possessive pronoun 'your' and the objective pronoun 'who.'
