Personal Pronouns All you need to know!

Personal Pronouns Personal pronouns take the place of nouns. The nouns that pronouns refer to are called antecedents. Pronouns can be nominative, objective, or possessive (3 CASES).

Nominative vs. Objective vs. Possessive Nominative pronouns are SUBJECTS or PREDICATE NOMINATIVES (pronouns that come after a linking verb and rename the subject) --Objective pronouns are Direct Objects, Indirect Objects(follow action verbs), or Objects of Prepositions(follow prepositions) --Possessive pronouns show OWNERSHIP

Singular Pronouns NominativeObjectivePossessive 1 st personIMeMy mine 2 nd personyou Your yours 3 rd personHe, she, itHim, her, itHis her Hers its

Plural pronouns NominativeObjectivePossessive 1 st personWeusour Ours 2 nd personYouyouYour Yours 3 rd personTheythemtheir theirs

The Nominative Case Remember a predicate pronoun follows a linking verb and explains or identifies the subject of a verb. -Follows a form of the verb be (am, is, are, was, were, be, or been) Strip or Flip You can rely on your ear if you strip the sentence so that only one pronoun remains in the subject. Ex. Henry and me worked hard Me worked hard. Correct: Henry and I worked hard. To test predicate pronouns, flip the pronoun so that it’s in front of the verb. Ex. The singer was her. Her was the singer. Correct: The singer was she.

The Objective Case A direct object follows an action verb and tells who or what receives the action of a verb. An indirect object comes between an action verb and a direct object and tells to whom or what OR for whom or what. The object (of a preposition) is a noun or pronoun that follows a preposition. Identify the objective pronouns and how they are used. Trent gave her the jacket. Kristen left me there for two hours. As soon as we got the package, we passed it on to them.

Who is it? To Whom it May Concern… Who is a nominative case pronoun Whom is an objective case pronoun

Pronouns with Appositives When a pronoun is followed directly by a noun that identifies the pronoun, omit the appositive and try each form of the pronoun separately. (We, Us) teachers love our students. Would it be...We love our students. or...Us love our students.

So…which pronouns go where? And what are they doing? I gave __________ (he/him) a dollar. Mary and ________ (she/her) are the winners! Please bring the flowers to _____(they/them). Joe bought drinks for Mary and _____(he/him) Don’t forget to bring _____(her/she) coat. Susan loves _____(he/him). _______ made the pizza? (who/whom) To _________ am I speaking? (who/whom)

The end!
