Explanation:
A word that is substituted for a noun or noun phrase is known as a pronoun. Pronouns can refer to a noun that has been explicitly mentioned or to one that is assumed.
The most prevalent pronouns are personal pronouns, which relate to the speaker or writers (in the first person), the listener or viewers (in the second person), or other individuals or objects (third person).
