PRONOUNS
Pronouns stand in place of nouns. Some change their form according to their function in the sentence (eg whether they are subject or object of the verb).
SUBJECT PRONOUNS
I
you
he
she
it
we
you (plur)
they
OBJECT PRONOUNS
me
you
him
her
it
us
you (plur)
them
Sometimes, when more than one pronoun is used, there is confusion over which form to use. (eg for you and me or for you and I?) When in doubt as to whether to use the subject or object form of a pronoun, try each one separately. We would never say for I, so it is correct to say for you and me.
POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS
mine
yours
his
hers
its
ours
yours (plural)
theirs
