What is a Pronoun?
A pronoun is a little word that takes the place of a noun so we do not have to repeat the same name again and again.
Personal Pronouns (He, She, It)
We use 'he' for a boy or man, 'she' for a girl or woman, and 'it' for animals and things.
Plural Pronouns (We, They, You)
We use 'we' for ourselves and others, 'they' for other people or things, and 'you' for the person or persons listening.
Subject Pronouns
Pronouns like I, he, she, we, and they act as the doer of the action at the beginning of a sentence.
