subject and object pronouns in Englis

1. Subject and Object Pronouns

2. SUBJECT PRONOUNS A subject pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun as the subject of a sentence. Remember, a sentence’s subject is the person or thing that performs the action of a verb. Subject pronouns can be singular or plural, and they can be masculine, feminine, or gender neutral.

3. Subject pronouns: these are words we use to start a sentence. They are in the position of the subject BEFORE the verb. We can use them instead of names. You work hard. She reads books. They drink coffee. ex: María reads books ex: Juan and Sofía drink coffee

4. More examples: Martín likes ice cream. My mum and I play chess. He likes ice cream. We play chess.

5. OBJECT PRONOUNS Object pronouns are those pronouns that receive the action in a sentence. Any noun receiving an action in the sentence, like these pronouns, is an object. The seven basic pronouns take on different forms when used as object pronouns rather than as subject pronouns: I becomes Me You becomes You (this rule applies for singular and plural use) He becomes Him She becomes Her It becomes It We becomes Us They becomes Them
