Learn English – No one who I know

sentence-constructionword-choice

I wrote this sentence –

Not that I did not try to find him, but no one who I know knows about her.

Is this sentence understandable?

"No one who I know" is it correct?

What I intended to mean –

"I know a few people. Among them there was no one who knows about him"

Best Answer

I would understand you perfectly.

Having said that, I wouldn't normally use a double negative in the first part of the sentence, and I'd omit the "who" from "no one who I know":

I tried to find him, but no one I know knows about him.

I'd change these things as a matter of style, however, not grammar.
