Pronouns 1 Pronouns take the place of nouns

A pronoun is a word that we use instead of or for (pro-) the noun; this helps us avoid repeating the antecedent (ante=before, cede=go) noun monotonously.

Pronouns may be masculine gender (he, him, his) feminine gender (she, her, hers) neuter gender (it)

Pronouns may also have a person and number. Subject Pronouns SingularPlural First PersonIwe Second Personyou Third Personhe, she, itthey

Antecedent: The pronoun’s antecedent is the noun that the pronoun replaces. Hamlet was he. There is not always an antecedent. The indefinite pronouns do not need antecedents. Anyone who is registered may vote.

Bart went home; he felt dizzy.

There are different kinds of pronouns, and each kind is named for its purpose.

Subject Pronouns Subject pronouns SingularPlural First PersonIwe Second Personyou Third Personhe, she, itthey

Object pronouns SingularPlural First Personmeus Second Personyou Third Personhim, her, itthem

Memorize the subject and object pronouns so you can speak and write properly! He saw he? Him saw him? Him saw he? No. He saw him.
