Pronouns الضمائر في الانكلش

[left]The Pronoun
Pronouns are words such as “he,” “she,” “it,” and “that,”
which take the place of nouns so that we don’t have to drive
each other nuts saying things such as Harry went to Harry’s
car and then Harry drove to pick up Susan, and then Harry
and Susan drove to Harry’s father’s house. Instead, we can
use pronouns to refer back to some of the nouns in the sentence,
and say, Harry went to his car and then he drove to
pick up Susan, and then they went to his father’s house. If
you have trouble remembering the definition, just take the word
apart: “pro” means “for” as in “pro-government” or “pro vs.
con,” so “pronoun” simply means “for a noun.”
It would be great if pronouns were no more complicated
than that. But they come in all kinds of flavors and varieties
designed to handle different assignments within a sentence,
and they won’t do anything outside of their specific job descriptions.
They get all bent out of shape if you make them try.
Here’s the rundown on the three basic facts you need to understand
about pronouns in order to keep them in line.
