Pronoun Case... depends on how the pronoun is used in the sentence possessive subjective objective

Possessive Case Pronouns These are easy to identify because they show ownership: My dog is Rover. Leslie lost her ribbon. The disk was left out of its case. The boys left their books in the library. Myron said the backpack is his. The pen is mine.

Subjective Case Pronouns Some pronouns function as a subject or subject complement. (A subject complement follows a linking verb.) For example …

Subject Case: Examples She and Sylvia shared the award. (”She” functions as the subject.) The winners were Jeff and I. (“I” functions as the subject complement—because it follows the linking verb were.)

Subjective Case Pronouns I We You He She It They

Objective Case Pronouns Some pronouns function as objects: Direct object Indirect object Object of preposition For example …

Objective Case Examples Bruce found Tony and brought him to the party. (direct object) Alice gave me a surprise party. (indirect object) If you see Ann, please give this note to her. (object of preposition)

Objective Case Pronouns Me You Him Her It Us Them

Compound Word Groups Rita and she? Rita and her? Which one? The Trick: When a pronoun appears as part of a compound word group, mentally strip away all the words in the group except the pronoun.

Compound Word Groups (She/her) and Rita went to the movie. Explanation: She and Rita – subject of the sentence – subjective case pronoun (The trick: She went to the movie. Her went to the movie. Ouch! )

Compound Word Groups Mother baked a pie for John and (I/me). Explanation: John and me – object of the preposition for – objective case pronoun (The trick: Mother baked a pie for me. Mother baked a pie for I. Ouch! )

Appositives Appositives are words that rename nouns or pronouns. We students like this class. The teacher is stern but fair with us students.

Appositives Choose the pronoun that would be appropriate if the noun were omitted. We [students] like this class. (Not “Us”) The teacher is stern but fair with us [students]. (Not “we”)

Pronouns with than or as Sometimes verbs are omitted in comparisons that use than or as. To choose the correct pronoun, mentally fill in the verb. Harold weighs more than I [weigh]. Sue’s brother is as tall as she [is].

Learn “subjective” and “objective” case pronouns. Analyze the sentence to see how the pronoun functions in the sentence to know which case you should use. Which Pronoun Do I Use?
