Pronouns
Common types include the;
• Personal pronouns
• Possessive pronouns
• Reflexive pronouns
• Relative pronouns
• Demonstrative pronouns
• Interrogative pronouns
• Indefinite pronouns
Personal pronouns
Personal pronouns denote an entity
of a specific grammatical person:
• First person(as in the case of I,
me, we, etc.),
• Second person (as in the case of
you)
• Third person(she, he,it,they)
Possessive pronouns
Possessive pronouns are used to indicate
possession or ownership.
• In a strict the sense, the possessive
pronouns are only those that act
syntactically as nouns.
Those clothes are mine.
• Often ,though the term” possessive
pronoun” is also applied to the so-called
possessive determiners (or possessive
adjectives).
example
I lost my wallet.
They are not strictly speaking pronouns because
they do not substitute for a noun or noun phrase,
and as such, some grammarians classify these
terms in a separate lexical category called
Determiners( they have a syntactic role close to
that of adjectives, always qualifying a noun.
Reflexive pronouns
Relative pronouns
Relative pronouns refer back to
people or things previously
mentioned.( who, that, which,
whose ,where, etc.)
People who smoke
should quit now.
Demonstrative pronouns
Interrogative pronouns
Interrogative pronouns ask
which person or thing is meant.
( who?, why?, how?, where?,
etc.)
Who did that?
Who broke my cup?
Indefinite pronouns
Interrogative pronouns refer to general
categories of people or things.
• Anybody, anything, anyone
• Somebody, something, someone
• Everybody, everything, everyone
Anyone can do that.
Somebody stole my money.
