Pronouns- Personal pronouns

Pronouns are words we use in the place of a full noun.

There are many different kinds of pronouns.

But for this we are going to see just the Personal Pronouns

Personal Pronouns


We have both subject and object pronouns:
SubjectObject
Ime
youyou
hehim
sheher
itit
weus
youyou
theythem


WARNING:
Remember: English clauses always have a subject:
His father has just retired. Was a teacher. > He was a teacher.
I’m waiting for my wife. Is late.  > She is late.
If there is no other subject we use it or there. We call this a dummy subject.

Object pronouns

 We use object pronouns:
• as the object of the verb:
Can you help me please?
I can see you.
She doesn’t like him.
I saw her in town today.
We saw them in town yesterday, but they didn’t see us.
• after prepositions:
She is waiting for me.
I’ll get it for you.
Give it to him.
Why are you looking at her?
Don’t take it from us.
I’ll speak to them
