Pronoun
 Pronoun
It is a word that takes the place of
a noun. There are different kinds of
pronouns. These are personal,
demonstrative, indefinite, intensive,
reflexive, interrogative, and relative
pronouns.
 Kinds of Pronoun

1. Personal Pronoun
2. Demonstrative Pronoun
3. Indefinite Pronoun
4. Interrogative Pronoun
5. Relative Pronoun
 Personal Pronouns
These pronouns are used for specific
people and things.
● The cases of pronouns are subject,
objective, and possessive;
● The number is either singular or plural;
● Person maybe in the first, second,
third.
 Cases

1. Subject Pronoun – (I, we, you, she, he,

they, and it) A subject pronoun is
used as a subject or a predicate in a
sentence.
Examples:
● I am the breadwinner in the family.
● It was he who did the job well done.
Cases
2. Object Pronoun – (me, you, him, her, it,
us, and them) An object pronoun is used
as an indirect object, direct object, or
object of a preposition.
Examples:

the occasion.
● My sister told me to come home early.
Cases
3. Possessive Pronouns – (my/mine,
your/yours, his, her, its, our/ours, and
their/theirs) These take the place of
nouns that show ownership.
Examples:
● Christine brings her project home.
● Grandmother prepares our dinner
today.

 Indefinite Pronouns
These pronouns refer to or replace nouns in
a general way. Some indefinite pronouns
are used as adjectives when used as such,
these pronouns are followed by a noun, as
in each group and both children. Other
examples are all, anyone, any, each,
everyone, both, either, every, many, neither,
nobody, no one, some, and someone.
 Indefinite Pronouns

Examples:
● He has one job during the day and
another at night. (pronoun)
● I'd like another drink, please.
(adjective)
 Indefinite Pronouns
We use indefinite pronouns to refer to
people or things without saying
exactly who or what they are. We use
pronouns ending in -body or -one for
people, and pronouns ending in
-thing for things.
 Indefinite Pronouns

Examples:
● Everybody enjoyed the concert.
● I opened the door but there was no
one at home.
● It was a very clear day. We could
see everything.

ask questions. (who, whom,
which, and whose)
 Kinds of Pronoun

 Relative Pronouns

These pronouns begin a

subordinate clause and
connects it to another idea in
the sentence. (that, which,
who, whom, whose)
 Relative Pronouns
● That (The dog that stole the pie is back.)
● Which (My new dog, which I bought last year,
loves green beans.)
● Who (The person who bought his car found a
3-carat diamond under the seat.)
● Whom (Our lawyer, whom we employed for
over a year, was related to the complainant.)
● Whose (The young girl whose cat scratched
our sofa has offered to replace the cushions.)
 Relative Pronouns
● "which" introduces a non-essential
clause, meaning that it doesn't
define the noun it's describing
● "that" introduces an essential
clause, meaning that it clarifies
exactly which noun the sentence
is about
 Relative Pronouns

Examples:
My house, which I bought recently,
is next to a lake.
The house that I bought recently is
next to a lake.
Thank You!
