they can also contain compound subjects or verbs

1. Subject Pronoun
The Subject of a sentence is..........“A person or thing that performs the action of
the verb”
Subject Pronoun are used to replace the subject (person or thing) of a verb.
![Page 12: Types of sentences and pronouns](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e25861a28ab7e1f8b464f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
We do NOT normally say:
“John is tall and John is intelligent.”
So we would say:
“John is tall and he is intelligent.”

These are the subject pronouns we use in English.....
![Page 14: Types of sentences and pronouns](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e25861a28ab7e1f8b464f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
When do you use IT?IT is normally used when we refer to objects, things, animals or ideas
1. It is also hairy. (It = the dog)2. My bed is small but it is comfortable. (It = my bed)
Sometimes when we don't know the sex of a baby (we don't know if it is a boy or girl), then we can use IT.“Their baby is very small. It only weights 2 kilos.”
(It = the baby.)
![Page 15: Types of sentences and pronouns](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e25861a28ab7e1f8b464f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
We use IT we when talk about the time, weather or temperature.
1. It is five o'clock (= the time is five o'clock)2. It is cold today. (= the weather is cold today.)3. It is 30º outside right now. (= the temperature is 30º
outside right now)
When do you use IT?

2. Object Pronoun
Subjects are what the sentence is about. Objects are what is affected by the action of the subject.
• I like whisky. (I is the subject).• I read books.
(Books is the object as it is receiving the action).
![Page 17: Types of sentences and pronouns](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e25861a28ab7e1f8b464f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
![Page 18: Types of sentences and pronouns](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e25861a28ab7e1f8b464f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Object pronouns are used instead of nouns, usually because we already know what the object is. It makes the sentence easier to read and understand and avoids repetition.
We normally use object pronouns after a verb or a preposition.
![Page 19: Types of sentences and pronouns](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e25861a28ab7e1f8b464f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

The Object Pronoun – it
• Be careful when using 'it' as an object pronoun because it is only in the correct context that it has meaning. It needs to have already been mentioned or obvious to the listener what you are referring to. Compare;
• You are sitting on it! (The listener probably doesn't know what the speaker refers to).
• The letter is on the sofa. You are sitting on it! (It is obvious in the second sentence that the reference is to the letter)

3. Possesive Pronoun
We use possessive pronouns to refer to a...
specific person/people or thing/things (the "antecedent") belonging to a
person/people
(and sometimes belonging to an animal/animals or thing/things).
![Page 22: Types of sentences and pronouns](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/558e25861a28ab7e1f8b464f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
We use possessive pronouns depending on:
• number: singular (eg: mine) or plural (eg: ours)• person: 1st person (eg: mine), 2nd person
(eg: yours) or 3rd person (eg: his)• gender: male (his), female (hers)
Possessive pronoun can:• be subject or object• refer to a singular or plural antecedent
