1. Mention the Kinds of Pronoun !

Make sentences for each kind !

Pronoun is a word that is used instead of a noun, e.g. he, she, it, they, his, her, him its etc.

There five types of pronoun

1. Personal Pronoun

Personal pronoun describes a particular person or thing or group.personal pronoun describes the person speaking (I, me, we, us), the person spoken to (you), or the person or thing spoken about (he, she, it, they, him, her, them). Examples :

He helps poor. The pronoun “he” in above sentence describes a person who helps poor.

(1). She is intelligent. (2) We love our country.  (3)The teacher appreciated them.

2. Possessive Pronoun

Possessive Pronoun indicates close possession or ownership or relationship of a thing/person to another thing/person. e.g. yours, mine, his,  hers, ours, theirs, hers.  Example : This book is mine. The pronoun “mine” describes the relationship between book and a person (me) who possesses this book or who is the owner of this book.

Examples :

(1) That car is hers. (2)Your book is old. Mine is new. (3)The pen on the table is mine.

Note: Possessive adjectives (my, her, your) may be confused with possessive pronouns. Possessive adjective modifies noun in terms of possession. Both possessive adjective and possessive show possession or ownership, but possessive adjective is used (with noun) to modify the noun while Possessive pronoun is used instead (in place of) a noun.

Examples:

This is my book. (Possessive adjective: “my” modifies the noun “book”.

3. Reflixive Pronoun

Reflexive pronoun describes noun when subject’s action affects the subject itself. e.g himself, yourself, herself, ourselves, themselves, itself  are reflexive pronouns. Reflexive pronouns always act as objects not subjects, and they require an interaction between the subject and an object.

Examples.

(1) I looked at myself in the mirror. (2) You should think about yourself. (3)They prepared themselves for completion.

Note: Reflexive noun can also be used to give more emphasis on subject or object. If a reflexive pronoun is used to give more emphasis on a subject or an object, it is called “Intensive Pronoun”. Usage and function of intensive pronoun are different from that of reflexive pronoun.

4. Relative Pronoun

Relative Pronoun describes a noun which is mentioned before and more information is to be given about it Or Relative pronoun is a pronoun which joins relative clauses and relative sentences.

For example, It is the person, who helped her. In this sentence the word “who” is a relative pronoun which refers to the noun (the person) which is already mentioned in beginning of sentence (It is the person) and more information (he helped her) is given after using a relative pronoun (who) for the noun (the person).

Similarly, in above sentence the pronoun “who” joins two clauses which are “it is the person” and “who helped her”.

Examples. The most commonly used five relative pronouns are, who, whom, whose, which, that.

“Who” is for subject and “whom” is used for object. “who” and “whom” are used for people. “Whose” is used to show possession and can be used for both people and things. “Which” is used for things. “That” is used for people and things.

Examples.

(1). It is the girl who got first position in class. (2).  Adjective is a word that modifies noun. (3). The man whom I met yesterday is a nice person.

5. Demonstrative Pronoun

Demonstrative pronoun is a pronoun that points to a thing or things. e.g. this, that, these, those, none, neither, These pronouns point to thing or things in short distance/time or long distance/time. Short distance or time: This, these.  Long distance or time: That, those.

Demonstrative pronouns “this and that” are used for singular thing while “these or those” are used for plural things.

Examples

(1). This is black. (2). That is heavy. (3). Can you see these?

2. There are 3 types of question ! what are they ?

There are three basic question types:

1. Yes/No: the answer is “yes or no”

2. Question-word: the answer is “information”

3. Choice: the answer is “in the question”

1. Yes/No questions

Sometimes the only answer that we need is yes or no. Look at these examples:

1.     Do you want shopping?     Answer: yes,I do

2.     Can you help me?              Answer: yes,I can

3.     Do you want go home?      Answer: yes,I do

2. Question-word questions

Sometimes we want more than yes or no for an answer. When asking for information, we usually place a question-word at the beginning of the sentence. The question-word indicates the information that we want, for example: where (place), when (time), why (reason), who (person). Look at these examples:

1.     Where do you live?          Answer: in Jakarta

2.     Who did he meet?           Answer: he met jono
