Recognizing Cases of Personal Pronouns NominativeObjectivePossessive

Nominative CaseUse in a sentence I, we, you, he, she, it, theySubject of a verb Predicate pronoun Objective CaseUse in a sentence Me, us, you, him, her, it, them Direct object, indirect object, object of a preposition Possessive CaseUse in a sentence My, mine, our, ours, your, yours, his, her, hers, its, their,theirs To show ownership The Three Cases of Personal Pronouns

Nominative Case USES OF NOMINATIVE PRONOUNS: 1.Subject of a verb EXAMPLE: He is the star of the show. With great effort, they lifted the car. 2.Predicate pronouns follow linking verbs (was, were, am, are, be, been, have, had, etc.) EXAMPLE: The smartest students are she and John. Use the nominative case when the pronoun is part of a compound subject. EXAMPLES: John and I; Cody and he To check if you are using the nominative pronoun correctly, use the pronoun with the verb. John and (I/me) played checkers. CHECK: I played or me played

Objective Uses of Objective pronouns: 1.Direct object EXAMPLE: Caitlin and I gave him the flag. Sally played on the team with him and me. 2. Indirect object EXAMPLE: Give her the plate of spaghetti. My son taught him to play the guitar. 3.Object of a preposition (THINK OF A BOX) EXAMPLE: The students gathered around her. He cried in front of me.

Objective When a compound object (John and me) is used check the pronoun to make sure it is used correctly. Use the pronoun with the rest of the sentence. Brad Pitt sat beside Susie and (I/me). Brad Pit sat beside I or me. ME

Possessive This is the easiest of all cases of pronouns. USES OF POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS: 1.To show possession. EXAMPLE: Is the 100 dollar bill yours or hers? ITS does not have an apostrophe when used at a possessive pronoun. EXAMPLE: It’s going to storm outside. The dog loved its new toy.
