Pronouns are words that take the place of nouns and all their modifiers. They can be subjects, direct and indirect objects, interrogatives, impersonals, objects of prepositions, reflexives, demonstratives, possessives, and relatives. This chart will help you keep them in the proper order.
SUBJECT PRONOUNS
Pronouns can be subjects and perform action. Here are the pronouns used as subjects:
Use subject pronouns for the following:
a. As the subject of the verb
He writes music.
She sings well.
b. After than or as in comparison
He paints better than she.
I am as tall as he.
c. After a form of the verb be
It is l.
The winner was she.
In (b) if you repeat the verb, you can see that you must use the subject form.
He paints better than she (paints).
I am as tall as he (is).
Pronouns can be objects (receivers): direct, indirect, object of a preposition:
me
us
you
you
him, her, it
them
a. Khan saw her last night in class. (direct object)
b. Give the money to them immediately. Give them the money immediately. (indirect object)
c. Sam bought for us dinner because we were working so late. (object of a preposition)
Whenever there is a compound form in a prepositional phrase, cover up the other noun and the word and, and then decide whether you need subject or object pronouns.
Give the books to Jane and
. Give Jane and her the books.
By covering up Jane and, you see that the pronoun is used as the object of the preposition to, and her would be the object form.
Pat and
saw the movie last night.
By covering up Pat and, you see that the pronoun is the subject form; therefore, I is the correct form.
