What is a pronoun?

Pronouns are small words that take the place of a noun.

They save repetition and prevent sentences from becoming cumbersome.

Instead of: “Do you like the Prime Minister? I don't like the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister is too

pompous.”

With pronouns, we can say: “Do you like the Prime Minister? I don't like him. He is too pompous.”

We use “he” and “she” on a daily basis, but people can use a wide range of personal pronouns to

describe themselves.
