Pronouns

Pronouns take the place of a noun.

He, she, we, they, you, it, and I are pronouns. They take the place of a noun in a sentence. After you write somebody’s name, you can use pronouns to avoid repetition in the following sentences that apply to that same person or thing.

His, her, ours, theirs, yours, its, and my are possessive pronouns, meaning something belongs to he, she, we, they, you, it, or I.

Him, her, us, them , and me are used as objects, meaning they receive an action, as in: Tom threw the football to him.

Who, What, and Which are also pronouns used in questions. (You don’t know the name of the noun.)

Here’s a old video to help you out:
