Question

Examples of sentences with proper nouns with pronouns with its types

Answer 1

PRONOUNS
What is a pronoun?

A pronoun is a word which is used in place of a proper noun or a common noun. Generally, a pronoun takes the place of a particular noun. The pronoun refers to its antecedent. A pronoun helps us avoid unnecessary repetition in our writing and speech.

In other words, words that can be used instead of a noun are called pronouns. The word “pronoun” means “for a noun”.

Let’s understand pronouns with the help of a these example sentences:

Look at Mike. Mike is a good boy.
Mike loves to study. Mike is good at skating.
Instead of Mike we can use ‘he‘.

Now read these sentences again:

Look at Mike. He is a good boy.
He loves to study. He is good at skating.
The word ‘he‘ takes the place of Mike and is called pronoun.
