Pronouns Persons and Cases

Introduction Words that name places, persons, things or concepts are nouns. A pronoun is used to refer to these nouns. It can replace the noun in a sentence. However, one must use the noun first to establish the antecedent. Example: The children are hungry. They (antecedent) (pronoun) want to eat pizza.

What’s in the Pronoun Case File:  Personal Pronouns: 1. Nominative Case 2. Possessive Case 3. Objective Case Observe and remember the basic sentence pattern: Subject + verb + predicate.

Pronoun Case Personal pronouns express case. The case reflects the way the pronoun is used in a sentence: Nominative Case: The pronoun is used as a subject of the sentence. Objective Case: The pronoun is used as an object of the verb (in predicate) Possessive Case: The pronoun shows possession or ownership

Examples Nominative Case: The pronoun is used as a subject (before the verb) She is my best friend. Objective Case: The pronoun is used as an object (after the verb) Joe tells her to visit us. Possessive Case: The pronoun shows ownership This hat is hers. This pen is mine.

Person of a pronoun First person pronoun- is used in place of a speaker: (I ‘yo’, we ‘nosotros’) like Baskin Robin’s ice cream. I or we replace the names of the speaker or speakers. Second person pronoun- is used in place of a person or persons spoken to: Have you (tú, ustedes) decided on a flavor? Third person pronoun- replaces the person or thing being spoken about: He (él) ordered chocolate ice cream. They (ellos) practiced tennis.

Pronouns used in the nominative case: subject pronouns, used as the subject SINGULARNOMINATIVE First personI Second personYou Third personHe, she, it PLURAL First personWe Second personYou Third personThey

Pronouns used in the objective case (object pronouns, used in the predicate, after the verb) SINGULAROBJECTIVE First personMe Second personYou Third personHim, her, it PLURAL First personUs Second personYou Third personthem

Possessive Case (shows ownership) SINGULAR POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS First person mine Second person yours Third person hers, his, its PLURAL First person ours Second person yours Third person theirs

Reflexive Pronouns Are formed by adding –self to a singular pronoun and –selves to a plural pronoun. They refer to something done by the subject of the sentence. I told myself that today would be a bad day. The cat licked itself on the tail. Bob made dinner by himself. Tie your shoes by yourselves. Mike and I did homework by ourselves.

Review Pronouns are an important part of grammar. They substitute nouns. They can be used in 3 cases: Nominative (subject position) Objective (object position) Possessive (expressing ownership) Reflexive pronouns- Express actions realized by the subject.
