official or formal way.
Type of pronounce with examples
a. Personal Pronouns
·
Personal
pronouns can be the subject of a clause or sentence. They are: I, he, she,
it, they, we, and you. Example: “They went to the store.”
·
Personal
pronouns can also be objective, where they are the object of a verb,
preposition, or infinitive phrase. They are: me, her, him, it, you,
them, and us. Example: “David gave the gift to her.”
·
Possession
can be shown by personal pronouns, like: mine, his, hers, ours, yours,
its, and theirs. Example: “Is this mine or yours?”
b. Subject Pronouns
Subject pronouns are often (but not always)
found at the beginning of a sentence. More precisely, the subject of a sentence
is the person or thing that lives out the verb. Examples :
·
I owe
that person $3,000. – I am living out that debt. I is the
subject pronoun.
·
He and I had
a fight. – This sentence has two subjects
because he and I were both involved in the fight.
·
He broke
my kneecaps. – You get the idea.
·
To
him, I must now pay my children's college funds. – If you'll notice,
the verb in this sentence – the action – is "pay."
Although I is not at the beginning of the sentence, it is the person
living out the action and is, therefore, the subject.
c. Object Pronouns
By contrast, objects and object pronouns indicate the recipient of an
action or motion. They come after verbs and prepositions (to, with, for, at, on, beside,
under, around, etc.). example :
·
The
guy I borrowed money from showed me a crowbar and told me to
pay him immediately.
·
I
begged him for more time.
·
He
said he'd given me enough time already.
·
I
tried to dodge the crowbar, but he hit me with it anyway.
·
Just
then, the police arrived and arrested us.
