Pronouns are words that take the place of nouns, such as he, she, they. Reflexive pronouns refer back to the subject of the sentence, like myself, yourself, himself. Examples include "I gave myself plenty of time" and "You should let yourself into the house." Intensive pronouns emphasize the subject and usually appear near it, like "I myself am sick of the heat" and "The cat itself caught the mouse."
