2 English Reference Words What’s a Pronoun? A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun or other pronoun –It can take the place of a subject word (I, you, he, she, it, we, they) –It can take the place of an object word (me, you him, her it, us, them) –It can take the place of a possessive word (my, mine, your, yours, his, hers, its, our, ours, their, theirs) –It can refer to the subject of sentence, taking – the action of the verb to return to the subject (myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves)

4 What is a pronoun? It’s a word used instead of a noun (or a phrase containing a noun) Example: `He', `it', `who', and `anything' are pronouns. When the pronoun is the subject (the person doing the action) of the sentence, it is called a Subject Pronoun. Example: Bob is swimming. He is swimming.

5 TipsSubject -Beginning of the sentences; -Never -Never after preposition; -Ask before the verb (who? what? + verb)Object: -Middle or in the end of the sentences; -Never -Never in the beginning! -After prepositions; -Ask after the verb (subject + verb + who? what?)

6 The object of a verb : - me, you, him, her, it, us and them can all be used as the object of a verb. Ex : - Lisa likes cats. She likes to stroke them.

7 Possessive words:Adjectives my, your, his, her, its, our and their can all be used as references to the subject or object in a sentence. Ex : Lisa likes cats. Her cats are really cute.

8 Possessive words:Pronouns mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours and theirs can all be used as references to the subject or object in a sentence (after they are mentioned in the sentence. Ex : Lisa likes cats. My cat is ugly but hers are really cute.

9 TipsAdjective -Without S; -+ noun; -Beginning of the sentences; -Never in the end!Pronoun: -With S; -alone; -Middle or in the end of the sentences; -Never in the begining!

10 What’s an antecedent? The word that the pronoun replaces. –H–Hermione Granger threw her wand onto the floor (“her” renames “Hermione Granger”). –W–When Ron Weasley saw the wand drop, he picked it up and handed it to her. (“it” renames the “wand”) –T–Then Ron and Hermione went to their Defense Against the Dark Arts class. (“their” renames “Ron and Hermione”)

11 Basically, it’s this: All pronouns and their antecedents need to agree in person and number.

12 Vague Pronoun Reference "Mom wasn't sure if Jane had her make-up," –it is unclear if "her" refers to Mom or Jane. –Whose make up is it? “Mom wasn’t sure if Jane had brought Mom’s make up.” “Mom wasn’t sure if Jane had brought Jane’s make up.” OR "Had Jane brought her make up?" Mom wondered. Mom thought, "Has Jane brought my make up?"
