Answer:
Pronoun is a word which is used instead of a noun, i.e., substitutes a noun.
Explanation:
Read this paragraph, and then the next.
John is a good boy. John loves to play cricket. John is fond of chocolates. John gets good marks in class.
John is a good boy. He loves to play cricket. He is fond of chocolates. He gets good marks in class.
In the first paragraph, you can see that the word "John" is repeated multiple times and it doesn't sound good. In case of the second one, you can see that "John" is replaced with another word and thus sounds better than the first one.
That another word is a pronoun.
A pronoun is used to replace repeated nouns.
Some examples of pronouns are:
- It
- They
- Their
- He/his/him
- She/her
- We
- Our
- You
- Your
- Me
