  2. Pronoun • Word used in place of a noun or other pronoun • Pronouns can be singular or plural

  3. Pronoun Cases: each pronoun has 3 forms: • Subject • Object • Possessive

  4. Pronoun • Use the subject case when the pronoun is the subject of the sentence. • Use the object case when the pronoun is used as the direct object, indirect object, or as the object of a preposition. • Use the object case after the verb

  5. Subject example: He gives them pictures for their albums. • Object example: Later he showed me some pictures. • Object of a preposition: I suggested the idea to him. • The object comes after the verb. • Use a subject pronoun after a linking verb.

  6. Possessive Pronouns Personal pronouns that show ownership or relationship

  7. Possessive Pronouns

  8. Possessive Pronouns • Possessive Pronouns that come before nouns: • my, your, her, his, our and their • Possessive Pronouns that can stand alone in a sentence: • mine, ours, yours, his, hers, and theirs

  9. Reflexive Pronouns • Directs the action of the verb back to the subject. • Example: The boy convinced himself that his actions were not that bad.

  10. Intensive Pronouns • Stress the noun or pronoun within the sentence • Are not necessary to the meaning of the sentence • Example: I myself would not have gotten into trouble.

  11. Reflexive and Intensive Pronouns • Singular- myself, yourself, herself, himself, and itself • Plural- ourselves, yourselves, themselves • Theirselves- not a word

  12. Pronoun Antecedent Agreement • Antecedent: noun or pronoun that a pronoun refers to or replaces

  13. Singular pronouns • Refer back to a singular antecedent • Example: If an immigrant was said to be unhealthy, he or she might be sent back home.

  14. Plural pronouns • Refer back to a plural antecedent • Example: As the immigrants passed the statue, they studied it with awe.

  15. Indefinite Pronoun • Does not refer to a specific person, place, thing or idea. • Can be singular or plural
