'A day in the country' is written by Chekhov.

It pays homage to an unsung hero, a homeless cobbler

whose name is Terenty. In the beginning of the story a beggar girl named Fyokla, who is 6 years old
comes running through a village. The village is preparing for an approaching storm. She addresses
everyone as “uncle”. She is searching for some particular person. She finally finds Terenty in the kitchen-
garden. He is a “tall old man with a thin, pock-marked face, very long legs, and bare feet, dressed in a
woman’s tattered jacket”. He does not look like a hero.

But Fyokla is searching desperately for someone to help in freeing her brother Danilka, whose
hand is stuck in a tree. Terenty does not give importance to the approaching storm and talking
reassuringly in fatherly tones he goes to free Fyokla’s brother.

The story tells us that Terenty “answers all questions, and there is no secret in Nature which
baffles him. He knows everything”. The writer further adds that indeed “all the villagers, generally
speaking, know as much as he does”. But the difference is that Terenty is willing to share his knowledge
and time with the two orphan children. The children love him for this reason.

The two children retire to a deserted barn after spending the day with Terenty. And Terenty
goes to the tavern. Chekhov further tells about Terenty's sincerity and love for the two orphan children.
Terenty comes back later and puts bread under their heads making the sign of the cross while they are
asleep. In this way Terenty is tries to make the lives of Fyokla and Danilka a little better than his own.

 A pronoun is a word that replaces a noun in a sentence. Pronouns are used to avoid repeating
the same nouns over and over again. For example, "Jeremy ran so fast, you'd think his life was
on the line." ... Common pronouns include I, me, mine, she, he, it, we, and us.

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun. Examples: he, she, it, they, someone,
who. Pronouns can do all of the things that nouns can do. They can be subjects, direct objects,
indirect objects, object of the preposition, and more. Heck, the word pronoun even has the
word noun in it!

The Three Cases of Personal

Pronouns
 SEPTEMBER 5, 2012

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.

 She was quiet as she entered the museum.

In this sentence, the subject or thing being named by the use of a pronoun is “She” and so this would use

the nominative case pronoun.

A pronoun that is in the possessive case is used to show ownership or possession of something. The

possessive form pronouns are: My, mine, our(s), his/her(s), their, its, and yours.

 My car wouldn’t start because I left the headlights on.

In this sentence, “My” is showing who’s car is being discussed, and the “I,” being the subject of the

sentence, is there in the nominative pronoun.

A pronoun that is in the objective case is used as the direct object, indirect object, or the object of the

preposition. The objective form pronouns are: Me, you, him, her, it, and them.

 I was so thrilled that I gave her a big hug.

In this sentence, “her” is the object receiving the action in the sentence and so is a pronoun in the

objective case. “I” would be in the nominative case, as the purpose of the sentence is to demonstrate

something about “I,” the subject of the sentence.
