subject, object, and possessive pronouns #1
we use different types of pronouns depending on the pronouns function in a sentence. look at three types of pronouns below.
subject pronouns
i, you, he, she, it, we, they
subject pronouns can be used to tell who or what is doing something in a clause or sentence.
example: after winning the soccer match, we all went out for pizza to celebrate.
object pronouns
me, you, him, her, it, us, them
object pronouns can be used after verbs or prepositions. object pronouns tell to what or to whom something is being done.
example: coach diaz gave us a heartfelt speech about the power of teamwork.
possessive pronouns that come before a noun
my, your, his, her, its, our, their
possessive pronouns show that a noun belongs to someone. certain possessive pronouns must come right before nouns.
example: catrina and hank rode their bikes to the park by the river.
possessive pronouns that can appear without a noun

other possessive pronouns can take the place of the object that belongs to the antecedent.
