What is a PRONOUN? Note that some pronouns are singular: Rule 1. Subject pronouns are used when the pronoun is the subject of the sentence. You can remember subject pronouns easily by filling in the blank subject space for a simple sentence.   Example: ______ did the job. I, you, he, she, it, we, and they all fit into the blank and are, therefore, subject pronouns. Rule 2. Subject pronouns can replace proper nouns in the “subject position”. Karlie smells like roses. She smells like roses. Note that some pronouns are singular: I, you, he, she And some are plural: You (meaning “you all”), we, they
