Hello everyone,

I have a question, could you please help me ?
I want to know which one of the following sentences is correct:

1) His enthusiasm for the future always made he seem young.

2) His enthusiasm for the future always made he seems young.

Would you mind explaining to me what's the rule we used here ?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best regards.

Hello

Both sentences are wrong:

1) His enthusiasm for the future always made he him seem young.

2) His enthusiasm for the future always made he him ~~seems~~ seem young.

In 1) and 2), an object personal pronoun ("him") is required, not a subject pronoun.
In 2), the base form (dictionary form) of the verb is required, not the present tense, third person singular (with -s).
