Dear Alex
Some changes definitely needed:
Quibus mihi vita dederunt.
--> Eis qui vitam mihi dederunt.

No attraction of the relative pronoun allowed and no omission of the antecedant pronoun?
It's so common that I started to think that it's a firm rule.

I'll try to show you when you could use the grammatical attraction. Compare the sentence with the following one:
"Eis quibus vitam meam dedi" or simply: "Quibus vitam meam dedi".
"eis" and "quibus" = the same case (dative). That's why the attraction is possible here, but not in your sentence. | | | 1 July 2011 23:48 | | | | | | 2 July 2011 13:10 | | | | | | 2 July 2011 13:14 | | | | | | 2 July 2011 13:20 | | | Ha, ha, I claimed exactly the same during studing both of them... |
