Class 2 English - ICSE
Pronouns
In this Class 2 ICSE English chapter, students learn about pronouns, which are special words that take the place of nouns. Instead of repeating names like 'Rahul' or 'Sita' again and again, we use words like 'he', 'she', 'it', 'they', and 'we'. Understanding pronouns makes our sentences sound much smoother and easier to read. For ICSE board exams, mastering this topic helps young learners score high in grammar exercises, fill-in-the-blanks, and sentence correction questions. It builds a strong foundation for advanced writing and communication skills in higher classes.

What is a Pronoun?
A pronoun is a word used in place of a naming word (noun) so we do not have to repeat the same name.
He and She
We use 'He' for boys and men, and 'She' for girls and women.
It and They
We use 'It' for animals and things (singular), and 'They' for more than one person, animal, or thing.
I, You, and We
'I' is used for yourself, 'You' is used for the person you are talking to, and 'We' is used for yourself and others together.
