• Pronouns replace nouns. A different
pronoun is required depending on two elements: the noun being replaced and the function that noun has in the sentence. In English, pronouns only take the gender of the noun they replace in the 3rd person singular form. The 2nd person plural pronouns are identical to the 2nd person singular pronouns except for the reflexive pronoun Subject Object Possessive Possessiv Reflexive or Pronoun Pronoun Adjective e Pronoun Intensive (Determiner) Pronoun 1st person singular I me my mine myself
2nd person singular you you your yours yourself

3rd person singular, neutral it it its its itself
1st person plural we us our ours ourselves
2nd person plural you you your yours yourselves

1. Personal pronouns A. Subject Pronouns Subject pronouns replace nouns that are the subject of their clause. In the 3rd person, subject pronouns are often used to avoid repetition of the subject's name. Examples • I am 16. • We aren't coming. • They don't like pancakes. B. Object Pronouns Object pronouns are used to replace nouns that are the direct or indirect object of a clause. Examples • Give the book to me. • The teacher wants to talk to you. • Jake is hurt because Bill hit him. C. Possessive Pronouns Possessive pronouns replace possessive nouns as either the subject or the object of a clause. Because the noun being replaced doesn't appear in the sentence, it must be clear from the context. Examples • This bag is mine. • Yours is not blue. • That bag looks like his. D. Reflexive Reflexive and intensive pronouns are the same set of words but they have different functions in a sentence. Reflexive pronouns refer back to the subject of the clause because the subject of the action is also the direct or indirect object. Only certain types of verbs can be reflexive. You cannot remove a reflexive pronoun from a sentence because the remaining sentence would be grammatically incorrect. Examples • I told myself to calm down. • You cut yourself on this nail? • He hurt himself on the stairs. • Hanum : Hey Gina, good morning. how are you? • Gina : I am good. How about you? • Hanum : So am I. Have you seen Jacqueline? • Gina : She hasn’t come yet. Hey, how’s your homework? • Hanum : I have finished it. • Gina : Really? • Hanum : Yes.
