How is the pronoun subjective used?

Let's break down the use of subjective pronouns:

What are Subjective Pronouns?

Subjective pronouns are the pronouns that act as the subject of a sentence. They perform the action of the verb. Here's a simple way to remember them:

* They are the "doers" of the action.

Common Subjective Pronouns:

* I (singular, first person)

* You (singular or plural, second person)

* He (singular, third person, masculine)

* She (singular, third person, feminine)

* It (singular, third person, for things or animals)

* We (plural, first person)

* You (plural, second person)

* They (plural, third person)

Examples:

* I went to the store. (The pronoun "I" is the subject performing the action of "going")

* You should try that new restaurant. ("You" is the subject being addressed)

* He is reading a book. ("He" is the subject performing the action of "reading")

* She loves to dance. ("She" is the subject performing the action of "loving")

* It is raining outside. ("It" is the subject, referring to the weather)

* We are going to the movies. ("We" is the subject performing the action of "going")

* They are playing soccer. ("They" is the subject performing the action of "playing")

Key Points:

* Subjective pronouns are essential for forming grammatically correct sentences.

* They are always used at the beginning of a sentence, followed by the verb.

* Don't confuse subjective pronouns with objective pronouns (me, you, him, her, it, us, them), which are used as the object of a verb or preposition.
