Es hängt vom Kasus ab, welchen man verwendet.
Da steht ein Mann. Ich sehe ihn. (WEN oder was sehe ich? DEN Mann - IHN)
Ich gebe ihm das Ticket.
(WEM gebe ich das Ticket? DEM Mann - IHM)

@Euciph: It depends on what kind of question you can or want to ask, those questions are an easy indicator what casus you need to use (Nominativ, Akkusativ, Dativ, Genitiv)
I guess in Englisch the same difference is used in who and whom.
Who do I see?
Whom belongs the ticket?
Casus are hard to explain in languages that don't have so many.

Im Deutschen gibt es 4 Fälle.
ihm gehört das Buch. Wem gehört das Buch? Ihm = Dativ
