Unit 7: Ch. 23 Pronouns 7th English

-Pronouns have 3 cases: Nominative Objective Possessive -A pronoun’s “case” refers to its use in a sentence

Pronoun Case Use in Sentence Nominative— I, we, you, he, she, it, they Subject of a Verb Predicative Nominative Objective— Me, us, you, him, her, it, them Direct Object Indirect object Object of a Preposition Possessive— My, mine, our, ours, your, yours, his, her, hers, its, their, theirs To show ownership

Nominative Case The nominative case has 2 uses: Use the nominative case for the subject of verbs. Ex: I collect baseballs. Ex: She wrote a letter to the President. Use the nominative case when a pronoun is used as a predicate nominative. Ex: It is she. Ex: It might have been they. REMEMBER: A predicate nominative renames the subject and follows a linking verb (form of the verb “be”)

Nominative Case -To make sure you are using the correct case of a personal pronoun in a compound subject, use just the pronoun with the verb. Ex: Incorrect: Gina and me collect stamps. Ex: Correct: Gina and I collect stamps.

Objective Case Use the objective case for direct objects. -Remember: Find direct objects by finding the subject and verb and ask “what?” Ex: Kate invited me to the game. Use the objective case for indirect objects. - Remember: Find the indirect objects by finding the d.o. and then asking “to/for whom/what?” Ex: Diego wrote her a letter. Use the objective case for the object of a preposition. (list of prepositions on p. 246) Ex: Were they talking to me?

Possessive Case Use the possessive case before nouns to show possession Ex: The bat found its target. Ex: Have you seen their gloves? Use some personal pronouns by themselves to show possession. Ex: Is this hat yours or his?

Possessive Case -Remember: Personal pronouns ending in “s” are never written with an apostrophe Ex: Incorrect—Our’s is the last seat in the row. Ex: Correct: Ours is the last seat in the row. -Remember: The possessive form of “it” is “its.” “It’s” is a contraction for meaning “it is.” Ex: Incorrect: A team is only as good as it’s players. Ex: Correct: A team is only as good as its players.
