Personal Pronouns Antecedent

Personal pronouns stand in for nouns. They’re like stuntmen. When nouns feel overworked, they call for pronouns—words like he, it, she, we they, and so on.

The noun to which the pronoun refers is called the antecedent.

Pronouns !!!

Page 5: Grammar Notes

Squiggly was late. He forgot to set the alarm.

The tree fell because it had been attacked by bugs.

Grammar girl is happy because she remembered to bring an eraser.

Pronouns are VITAL~~~~~~~~~

Pronouns are vital. Try not using one for an hour, and you’ll see. I use them constantly as you can tell by these sentences.

Because pronouns come in different shapes and are used for different reasons some official grammar language is necessary. Ready?????

Pronouns are bunched together in three cases. (I do not know why the word “case” is used. Categories would work just as well, but officially they are called cases. Think of each case like a suitcase; it packs all the similar pronouns together.

First Person

Page 22: Grammar Notes

Point of ViewFirst Person

Tells the story from the point of view of the person who is talking. You’re being told the story by one person, and you’re in that person’s mind.

I often wonder what my dog is thinking.

Page 23: Grammar Notes

Second Person

Point of View

Directs the text to you, the reader. It’s usually used in nonfiction, such as these notes.

Try not using a pronoun for an hour. See if you can.

Page 24: Grammar Notes

Third Person

Third Limited

Point of View

Third Omniscient

Observes the story from the outside. The narrator can let you know what is happening in different people’s thoughts and can follow different characters (omniscient) or just one character (limited).

Sarah hates cats, so she was surprised to find one in her room.

Page 25: Grammar Notes

NOTE:Author’s write novels in first person or in third – they RARELY use second ;) .

I I …

is always and only a subject pronoun.

you …can stand in

for a subject or an object!!!

me … is always

and only a object pronoun.

you me

I threw the beach

ball.

You threw the beach ball.

Squiggly threw me.

Squiggly threw you.

Page 29: Grammar Notes

NOTE

You also fills in for one person or many people (i.e., it’s a singular and a plural pronoun). I say “You should go to Disneyland,” I could be talking to one person or to a group of people. You should be standing in for Squiggly alone, or Squiggle, Aardvark and their families.
