PERSONAL PRONOUNS

We use pronouns to talk about the speaker or the person we are speaking to. We also use them instead of a noun phrase.

• We use I/me for the speaker.
• You for the person spoken to.
• He/him to refer to a male person or animal.
• She/her to refer to a female person or animal.
• It for a thing or animal.
• We/us for the speaker and another person or people.
• They/ them for people or things.

Subject pronouns and Object pronouns

We use the subject pronoun form when the pronoun represents the subject of the sentence.

I, you, he, she, it, we, you and they

We use the object pronoun form:

• when the pronoun is the direct or indirect object;
• after a preposition;
• when the pronoun is the complement of the verb be.

me, you, him, her, it, us, you and them
