    What is a Personal Pronoun?

    A personal pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun, which represents a person, a group of
    people, or a thing. We use personal pronouns so we don’t have to repeat the same noun again and again
    in a sentence.

    Types of Personal Pronouns


    1. Subject Pronouns: These are used as the subject of a sentence.
    Examples: I, you, he, she, it, we, they.
    • Example sentence: She is reading a book.
    2. Object Pronouns: These are used as the object of a verb or preposition.
    Examples: me, you, him, her, it, us, them.
    • Example sentence: The teacher gave us homework.
    3. Possessive Pronouns: These show ownership or possession.
    Examples: mine, yours, his, hers, ours, theirs.
    • Example sentence: This book is mine.
    1. I like to play basketball every afternoon.
    2. You are a very good friend.
    3. He brought his favorite toy to school
    4. The teacher asked her to join the team.
    5. This jacket is theirs, not yours.

    2. Demonstrative Pronouns

     Definition: These pronouns point to specific things or people.


     Examples:
    o This, that, these, those
    o Example sentences:
     This is my favorite toy.
     Those are my brother’s shoes.

    3. Interrogative Pronouns

     Definition: These pronouns are used to ask questions.


     Examples:
    o Who, whom, whose, which, what
    o Example sentences:
     Who is calling you?
     Which one do you want?

    4. Relative Pronouns

     Definition: These pronouns connect clauses or phrases to a noun.


     Examples:
    o Who, whom, whose, which, that
    o Example sentences:
     The boy who won the race is my friend.
     This is the house that we bought last year.

    5. Indefinite Pronouns

     Definition: These pronouns refer to people or things that are not specific.
     Examples:
    o Someone, anyone, nobody, everybody, everything
    o Example sentences:
     Everyone is excited for the field trip.
     Somebody left their umbrella here.

    6. Reciprocal Pronouns

     Definition: These pronouns show a mutual action or relationship.


     Examples:
    o Each other, one another
    o Example sentences:
     The two friends help each other with homework.
     They always share their toys with one another.

    7. Compound Pronouns

     Definition: These pronouns are made by adding "-self" or "-selves" to personal pronouns.
     Examples:
    o Myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves
    o Example sentences:
     I made the cake all by myself.
     They cleaned the room by themselves.
