What are the three cases of pronouns?

Pronouns have three cases, which is what indicates how that


pronoun is related to the words that it is used with. The three
cases are: nominative, possessive, and objective.
The nominative case is used when the pronoun is the subject of
the sentence. The nominative form pronouns are: I, you, he/she,
it, we/they.
Subjective Pronouns : The role of the subject pronoun is
to replace the noun that is the subject of the sentence or clause.
There are seven main subject pronouns: I, you, he, she, it, we,
they.

Possessive Pronouns : Used in Sentences. Possessive


pronouns include my, mine, our, ours, its, his, her, hers,
their, theirs, your and yours. These are all words that
demonstrate ownership.

Objective Case of Pronouns:


When a pronoun is the object of the verb or preposition, it is in
the objective case.
Use the objective case of pronouns when the pronoun is a direct
or indirect object of a verb.
