Question

1. name and identify the type of pronoun that exists in the following sentence. make a wish when you blow out the candles. you is a third - person singular pronoun. you is a first - person plural pronoun. you is a second - person singular pronoun. you is an indefinite pronoun.

Explanation:

To determine the type of pronoun "you" is:

• Third - person pronouns are he, she, it, they etc., so the first option is wrong.
• First - person pronouns are I, we etc., so the second option is wrong.
• "You" is used to address the person (or people) being spoken to, which is the definition of a second - person pronoun. In this sentence, it can be used as a singular (addressing one person) or plural (addressing a group) second - person pronoun, and here in the context of "make a wish" (often addressed to one person), it functions as a second - person singular pronoun.
• Indefinite pronouns are words like someone, anyone, everyone etc., so the fourth option is wrong.

Answer:

C. You is a second - person singular pronoun.
