Personal Pronouns

Pronouns are words we use as substitute for a noun or a compound noun

(example: ice cream, bus stop.) We associate personal pronouns with a
grammatical person and they can be singular or plural depending on number,
natural gender and formality.

Examples:

Sofía is a girl. She is a girl.

(“She” is the personal pronoun we use to substitute “Sophia”.)
