What is the pronoun and antecedent this sentence The man walks beside woman?

This sentence is grammatically incorrect and ambiguous. Here's why:

* Missing Pronoun: There is no pronoun in the sentence. Pronouns replace nouns to avoid repetition.

* Missing Antecedent: An antecedent is the noun that a pronoun refers to. Without a pronoun, there can't be an antecedent.

To fix the sentence, you need to add a pronoun and make it clear who the pronoun refers to. Here are some possibilities:

* "The man walks beside the woman." This uses the noun "woman" as the antecedent.

* "The man walks beside her." This uses the pronoun "her" to refer to a woman already mentioned.

It's important to use pronouns correctly to ensure clear and understandable writing.
