Understand This Important Part of Speech

Are pesky pronouns causing you grief in your English writing? Do you want to learn English grammar quickly? Relax—our ESL editing and proofreading professionals are here to help explain this troublesome part of speech.

What Is a Pronoun?

Pronouns are used in place of nouns. The purpose of pronouns is to avoid repetition and make sentences easier to understand. Some of the most common pronouns to remember when learning English as a second language are he, she, it, they, and this.

The Seven Types of Pronouns

There are seven types of pronouns that both English and English as a second language writers must recognize: the personal pronoun, the demonstrative pronoun, the interrogative pronoun, the relative pronoun, the indefinite pronoun, the reflexive pronoun, and the intensive pronoun.

1. Personal pronouns

Personal pronouns refer to a specific person or thing. Their form changes to indicate a person, number, gender, or case.

Subjective personal pronouns are pronouns that act as the subject of a sentence. If you are learning English as a second language, remember that the subjective personal pronouns are I, you, she, he, it, you, and they. For example:

"I walked directly to the party."

"You showed up late; she was annoyed."

"He thought you had forgotten; we know you were just behind."

Objective personal pronouns are pronouns that act as the object of a sentence. If you are learning English as a second language, remember that the objective personal pronouns are me, you, her, him, it, us, you, and them. For example:

"The police officer told my brother and me to slow down."

"He pointed to the pedestrians and said to be careful of them."

"The police officer said there are a lot of speedy motorists like us."

Possessive personal pronouns are pronouns that show possession. They define a person (or a number of people) who owns a particular object. If you are learning English as a second language, remember that the possessive personal pronouns are mine, yours, hers, his, its, ours, and theirs. For example:

"Is this book yours or his?"

"All the books are mine."

"Nobody's house has as many books as theirs, not even ours."

2. Demonstrative pronouns

Demonstrative pronouns point to and identify a noun or a pronoun. This and these refer to things that are nearby in space or time, while that and those refer to things that are farther away in space or further away in time. For example:

"This is the dress I will wear; that is the one I wore yesterday."

"That is not true."

"Please pay for those."

3. Interrogative pronouns

Interrogative pronouns are used to ask questions. The interrogative pronouns are who, whom, which, and what. If you are learning English as a second language, it is important to remember that who and whom are used to refer to people, while which is used to refer to things and animals. Who acts as the subject, while whom acts as the object. For example:

"Which is the best restaurant?"

"What did he tell you?"

"Whom should we invite?"

4. Relative pronouns

Relative pronouns are used to link one phrase or clause to another phrase or clause. The relative pronouns are who, whom, that, and which. The compounds whoever, whomever, and whichever are also commonly used relative pronouns. For example:

"Whoever added the bill made a mistake."

"The bill, which included all our meals, was larger than expected."

"The waiter who served us doesn't know how to add."

5. Indefinite pronouns

Indefinite pronouns refer to an identifiable, but not specified, person or thing. An indefinite pronoun conveys the idea of all, any, none, or some. If you are learning English as a second language, remember the following common indefinite pronouns: all, another, any, anybody, anyone, anything, each, everybody, everyone, everything, few, many, nobody, none, one, several, some, somebody, and someone. For example:

"Everybody got lost on the way there."

"Somebody forgot to bring the map."

"No wonder so few showed up."

6. Reflexive pronouns

Reflexive pronouns refer back to the subject of the clause or sentence. The reflexive pronouns used in writing English are myself, yourself, herself, himself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves. For example:

"She baked a cake for herself."

"We decided to eat it ourselves."

"We heard her say, 'They should be ashamed of themselves.'"

7. Intensive pronouns

Intensive pronouns are used to emphasize their antecedent. Intensive pronouns are identical in form to reflexive pronouns. For example:

"I myself find pronouns fascinating."

"They themselves think everyone should know about pronouns."

"You yourself should tell everyone how great pronouns are."

Explanation:

A pronoun is a word that is used instead of a noun or noun phrase. Pronouns refer to either a noun that has already been mentioned or to a noun that does not need to be named specifically.

The most common pronouns are the personal pronouns, which refer to the person or people speaking or writing (first person), the person or people being spoken to (second person), or other people or things (third person). Like nouns, personal pronouns can function as either the subject of a verb or the object of a verb or preposition: "She likes him, but he loves her." Most of the personal pronouns have different subject and object forms:
