A pronoun (I, me, he, she, herself, you, it, that, they, each, few, many, who, whoever, whose, someone, everybody, etc.) is a word that takes the place of a noun.
Pronouns have traditionally been regarded as one of the parts of speech, but some modern theorists would not consider them to form a single class, in view of the variety of functions they perform. Subtypes include personal pronouns, reflexive and reciprocal pronouns, possessive pronouns, demonstrative pronouns, relative pronouns, interrogative pronouns, and indefinite pronouns.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

know him.
• “he” is a pronoun. It refers to “John”. It is used in place of the noun
“John”
• “Him” is a pronoun. It refers to“John”.
• He is subject pronoun, him is an object pronoun.
• We use them for plural people and things
E.g: I have two brothers. You know them.
•
An object pronoun can follow preposition.
e.g: My mother has a son. She always talks about
him.
4. POSSESIVE PRONOUN AND
POSSESIVE ADJECTIVE
• A possessive pronoun is used alone, without a noun
following it.
• A possessive adjective is used only with a noun following
it.
6. e.g: This book belongs to me
Possessive Pronoun Possessive Adjectives
I It is mine It is my book
You It is yours It is your book
We It is ours It is our book

B. She has to work late tonight, so she cannot make it to party.
c. Let's go to the beach or mountain.

important, but these conjunctions are always used in pairs.
• Both - and
• Not only - but also
• Neither - nor
• Either - or
E.g: Both Bella and Lissa are busy.

time reason purpose condition
after before although even though
Because as if as long as
Till provided that Until unless

Whereas in spite of despite etc
Examples:

2. Keisha was upset because her boyfriend moved away. (Cause or
reason)
12. INTERJECTIONS!
• Interjections are used to express feelings or emotions.
• They are the least used part of speech.
• Interjections function independently from the rest of the
sentence
• Huh? What does that mean?
• It is therefore set off from the rest of the sentence by a
comma or exclamation mark.
14. INTERJECTIONS!
