    What are Pronouns?

    Priyanka Sharma
    Types of Pronouns
     Personal Pronouns
     Possessive Pronouns
     Reflexive Pronouns
     Demonstrative Pronouns
     Interrogative Pronouns

    Priyanka Sharma
    1. Personal Pronouns
    A personal pronoun is a short word we use
    as a simple substitute for the proper
    name of a person. For example:
    I, you, he, she, it, we they, me, him, her, us,
    and them are all personal pronouns.

    Personal Pronouns have two cases:


     Subjective Personal Pronoun
     Objective Personal Pronoun
    Priyanka Sharma
    Subjective Personal Pronoun
    A subjective pronoun acts as the subject
    of a sentence—it performs the action
    of the verb. The subjective pronouns
    are he, I, it, she, they, we, and you. For
    example:
     We bought a pound of apples.
    (We is the subject of the verb bought.)
     He decided to arrange a meeting.
    (He is the subject of the verb decided.)
    Priyanka Sharma
    Objective Personal Pronoun
    An objective pronoun acts as the object
    of a sentence—it receives the action of
    the verb. The objective pronouns are her,
    him, it, me, them, us, and you.
    For example:
     Minnie and George are cousins. I have
    always seen them going together to
    school.
     He met her when they were in college.

    Priyanka Sharma
    Examples :-
     This book is mine.
     Have you lost yours, Tom ?
     My phone is dead. Pass me yours .
     The house on the corner is theirs .

    Note: Possessive pronouns are never spelled with


    apostrophes.

    Priyanka Sharma
    3. Reflexive Pronouns
    Reflexive pronouns are words that refer to
    the noun or pronoun that is the subject of
    the verb. The words myself, yourself,
    himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves
    and themselves are reflexive pronouns.
    • Examples :-
     My brother built this computer himself
     John was looking at himself in the
    mirror

    Demonstrative pronouns are used for


    pointing out things. The words this, that,
    these and those are demonstrative
    pronouns.
    Examples:-
    • These are my pets.
    • These are sheep but those are goats.
    • Those are horses.

    • This is the Mings' house.
    • That is my friend’s house.
    • That’s my mother’s car.

    Priyanka Sharma
    5. Interrogative Pronouns
    Interrogative pronouns are used to ask
    questions. The words who, whose, what,
    which and whom are interrogative
    pronouns.
    Examples:-
    • Who used all my paper?
    • Who is Mom talking to?
    • Who are those people?
