Pronoun Problems Chapter 3 Lessons 9&10

Pronoun Problems We and Us with Nouns The pronouns we and us are sometimes followed by a noun that identifies the pronoun (we students, us students). How do you know which one to use? Ex. Some trees depend on (us, we) humans for survival. Drop the identifying noun (humans) from the sentence. Decide whether the pronoun is used as a subject or object. Select the correct pronoun.

Pronoun Problems Be sure that each pronoun refers clearly to only one person, place or thing. Confusing: Sara and Anne want to become tree farmers. She works after school at an orchard. Clear: Sara and Anne want to become tree farmers. Anne works after school at an orchard.

More Pronoun Problems Using Compound Subject Pronouns Use the subject pronoun I, She, He, We or They in a compound subject or with a predicate noun or pronoun. Ex. Greg and she decided to learn more about Sacajawea. Ex. The researchers are Polly and I.

More Pronoun Problems Using Compound Object Pronouns Use the object pronoun Me, Her, Him, Us, or Them in a compound object. Ex. Her story has always fascinated Polly and me. Ex. The research was divided between Greg and her. * To choose the correct case of the pronoun, read the sentence with only the pronoun (Her story has always fascinated me).

One More Problem Interfering Phrases – Sometimes a group of words comes between a noun and the that refers to it. Don’t be confused by the words in between. Sacajawea, who guided Lewis and Clark, never lost her way. (Her refers to Sacajawea, not Lewis and Clark.)
