Choose between subject and object personal pronouns

Key notes:

What are Personal Pronouns?

  • Definition: Personal pronouns are words that replace nouns. They can be used as subjects or objects in sentences.

Types of Personal Pronouns

  1. Subject Pronouns: Used when the pronoun is the subject of the sentence (who is doing the action).
  • Examples:
    • I
    • you
    • he
    • she
    • it
    • we
    • they
  • Example: They are playing outside.
  1. Object Pronouns: Used when the pronoun is the object of the sentence (who is receiving the action).
  • Examples:
    • me
    • you
    • him
    • her
    • it
    • us
    • them
  • Example: The teacher called me.

How to Choose the Correct Pronoun

  1. Identify the Action: Look at the sentence and find out who is doing the action (subject) or who is receiving the action (object).
  2. Select the Right Pronoun: Choose from the list of subject or object pronouns based on the role in the sentence.
