Pronouns are used in place of a noun that has already been mentioned. Let's study more about it.
For example:
Joney was hungry so he went to the kitchen.
Sara brought groceries with her.
I always clean my room myself.
Personal pronouns
Personal pronouns are used in place of nouns referring to specific people or things, for example, I, me, mine, you, yours, his, her, hers, we, they, or them. They can be divided into various categories according to their role in a sentence,
subjective pronouns
objective pronouns
possessive pronouns
reflexive pronouns
Subjective pronouns
Subjective pronoun
The personal pronouns I, We, He, She, They and It are known as subjective pronouns because they act as the subjects of verbs:
For example
She looks strange.
They think right.
I admired her.
Objective pronouns
The personal pronouns me, you, us, and we are called objective pronouns because they act as the objects of verbs and prepositions:
The teacher found her absent.
The school bus dropped him off late.
She waved at me.
Here’s a table setting out the different forms:
first person: I, me, we, us.
second-person: you, yours.
third person: he/she/it/they/him/her/it/them/ they.
Notice that the personal pronouns you and it stay the same, whether they are being used in the subjective or objective roles.
Possessive pronouns
The personal pronouns mine, yours, hers, his, ours, and theirs are known as possessive pronouns: they refer to something owned by the speaker or by someone or something previously mentioned.
For example:
That book is mine.
This is her house.
We are going to our family farmhouse.
Reflexive pronouns
Reflexive personal pronouns include me, himself, herself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves.
I fell and hurt myself.
She organized a study trip herself.
The children had to look after themselves.
You all are responsible for this mess yourselves.
We will take care of ourselves.
