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:
Subject | Object |
---|---|
I | me |
you | you |
he | him |
she | her |
it | it |
we | us |
you | you |
they | them |
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.
I’m waiting for my wife.
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.
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.
I’ll get it for you.
Give it to him.
