PRONOUNS

Pronouns are words that substitute for nouns.

Every pronoun must have a clear antecedent (the word for which the pronoun stands).

           Examples - subjective case


 
           Examples - possessive case

              

           Examples - objective case


       

   NOTE:  Because of pronoun case, the pronoun's form changes with its function in the
sentence.  Follow this link to pronoun case for more information.

 
B.      Demonstrative Pronouns:
                             

                   
Demonstrative pronouns can also be used as determiners.
                  
Example:
            
Hand me that hammer. (that describes the noun hammer)
                           
Demonstrative pronouns can also be used as qualifiers:
           
Example:
         
She wanted that much money? (that describes the adjective much)

 
                      
                    
c. Indefinite Pronouns:
                            
Singular:
 
One someone anyone no one everyone
Each somebody anybody nobody everybody
(n)either something anything nothing everything
                  
                     
Examples:
                             
Somebody is coming to dinner.
Neither of us believes a word Harry says.

Plural:     

Examples:

Both are expected at the airport at the same time.


Several have suggested canceling the meeting.

Singular with non-countables / Plural with countables:

Examples:

Some of the dirt has become a permanent part of the rug.


Some of the trees have been weakened by the storm.
Indefinite pronouns use apostrophes to indicate possessive case.

Examples:

The accident is nobody’s fault.


How will the roadwork affect one's daily commute?

Some indefinite pronouns may also be used as determiners.

one, each, either, neither, some, any, one, all, both, few, several, many, most

Note the differences:

Each person has a chance.

(Each is a determiner describing person.)

Each has a chance.

(Each is an indefinite pronoun replacing a noun.)

Both lawyers pled their cases well.

(Both is a determiner describing  lawyers.)

Both were in the room.

(Both is an indefinite pronoun replacing a noun.)

E. Interrogative Pronouns:

Interrogative pronouns produce information questions that require more than a “yes” or
“no” answer.

Examples:

What do you want?

Who is there?
What Is the Objective Case? (with Examples)
The objective case is used for nouns and pronouns which function as objects. There are three
types of object: a direct object, an indirect object, and anobject of a preposition.

In English, the objective case only affects personal pronouns (e.g., I, he, she,we, they). For


example, he becomes him, and they becomes them.

Examples of the Objective Case (Direct Object)


The direct object of a verb is the thing being acted upon by the verb. In other words, the direct
object is the receiver of the action. The direct object can be found by locating the verb and
asking "what?" or "whom?". For example:

 Please send him immediately.
(Q: send what or whom? A: him)
(In this example, the pronoun him is in the objective case. It has changed its form
from he to him. He is the subjective case version.)

 Please send this letter immediately.


(Q: send what? A: this letter)
(In this example, the noun phrase this letter is in the objective case. However, it does not
change. Remember, only some personal pronouns change their forms in the objective case
in English.)

Examples of the Objective Case (Indirect Object)


The indirect object is the recipient of the direct object. The indirect object can be found by
locating the direct object (see above) and then asking who or what received it. In the examples
below, the indirect objects are shaded, and the direct objects are in bold.

 Please send me the letter immediately.


(Q: send what? A: the letter)
(Q: Who (or what) received the letter? A: me)

 Friends should always tell you the truth. But, please don’t.


(Q: tell what? A: the truth)
(Q: Who (or what) received it? A: you)
(Not all personal pronouns change their forms in the objective case. In this example, you is
in the objective case, which is the same spelling as the subjective case version.)

Examples of the Objective Case (Object of a
Preposition)
The noun or pronoun after a preposition is known as the object of a preposition. In the examples
below, the prepositions are in bold.

 She sits with me.
 We will sail alongside her.
 You can tell a lot about a fellow's character by his way of eating jellybeans. (Ronald
Reagan, 1911-2004)
(Here, the objects of the prepositions are noun clauses. An object can be a single word, a
pronoun, a noun phrase, or a noun clause.)

The Objective Case


Objects (i.e., direct objects, indirect objects, and objects of prepositions) are always in the
objective case. In English, this only affects pronouns (but not all pronouns). Here is a list of
subjective pronouns and objective pronouns:

Ang Heograpiya ay tumukoy sa pag-aaral n gating mundo
at mga katangian nito.
Sa simula pa lamang ng kasaysayan, tinangka na ng tao
na kontrolin ang kaniyang kapaligiran upang masiguro
niya ang kaniyang patuloy na pag-iral. Bahagi rin ang
heograpiya sa mahalagang kaganapan sa kasaysayan.
Lubusang mauunawaan ang ginagampanan ng
heograpiya sa kasaysayan sa pamamagitan ng limang
tema ukol sa pag-aaral nito.

Limang Tema ng Heograpiya


Lokasyon
Tinukoy ng lokasyon ang eksaktong kinalalagyan ng isang
lugar sa mundo. Sa heograpiya, maibibigay ang
eksaktong lokasyon sa pamamagitan ng dalawang
paraan.
 Gamit ang absolutong lokasyon, maibibigay ang
kinalalagyan ng isang lugar o bansa sa pamamagitan
ng linya ng longhitud at latitud sa globo o mapa.
Matutukoy ang lokasyon ng isang bansa gamit ang,
degree, minute, at second.
 Sa relatibong lokasyon, maibibigay ang kinalalagyan
ng isang lugar o bansa gamit ang mga bansa, o
anyon tubig na nakapaligid dito.
Lugar
Sa heograpiya, tinutukoy ang katangian ng lugar ayon
sa pisikal at panlipunang aspekto.
 Tinutukoy ng pisikal na aspekto ang anyong-lupa at
tubig, klima, at likas yaman ng isang lugar o bansa.

 Tinutukoy naman ng panlipunang aspekto ang


katangian ng mamamayan ng isang bansa tulad ng
populasyon, wika, relihiyon, kultura, at sistemang
pampolitika.

Rehiyon
Sa heograpiya, tinutukoy ang isang pook o bansa na may
pagkakatulad na katangian sa iba pang malapit na pook o
bansa. Ang katangian ay mahahati sa dalawa:
 Pisikal na pagkakatulad, tulad ng klim, anyong-lupa, o
anyong-tubig.
 Kultural na pagkakatulad ng wika at relihiyo.
