Pronouns

Pronouns are words that are used in place of nouns in a sentence. They can be used to avoid repetition or clarify a sentence’s subject. Examples of common pronouns include “he,” “she,” “it,” “they,” and “we.” Pronouns are an important part of English grammar and are used in both spoken and written communication.

	Subject	Object
1st-person singular	I	me
2nd-person singular	you	you
3rd-person singular	he, she, it	he, she, it
1st-person plural	we	us
2nd-person plural	you	you
3rd-person plural	they	them

There are several types of pronouns in the English language, each with its own specific function and usage. These types include personal pronouns (e.g. “he,” “she,” “they”), possessive pronouns (e.g. “mine,” “yours,” “theirs”), reflexive pronouns (e.g. “myself,” “yourself,” “themselves”), demonstrative pronouns (e.g. “this,” “that,” “these”), and indefinite pronouns (e.g. “everyone,” “someone,” “anything”). Understanding the different types of pronouns and how they are used is important for clear and effective communication in both spoken and written English.
