How do you change a pronoun into noun?

You can't directly change a pronoun into a noun. Pronouns and nouns serve different functions in a sentence. Here's why:

* Pronouns stand in for nouns. They are words like *he*, *she*, *it*, *they*, *we*, *you*, *I*, *this*, *that*, *these*, *those*, *who*, *whom*, *whose*, *which*, *what*, *each*, *every*, *either*, *neither*, *someone*, *anyone*, *everyone*, *no one*, *nothing*, *something*, *all*, *any*, *some*, *most*, *few*, *many*, *several*, *enough*, *none*, *both*, *half*, *either*, *neither*, etc.

* Nouns are words that name people, places, things, or ideas. Examples include *John*, *London*, *table*, *love*.

Instead of changing a pronoun into a noun, you need to identify the noun that the pronoun is referring to.

Example:

* Sentence: "He went to the store."

* Pronoun: "He"

* Noun: We need to know who "he" is. Let's say it's "John."

Therefore, the sentence becomes: "John went to the store."

Here's a breakdown of how to identify the noun that a pronoun refers to:

1. Look for the pronoun in the sentence.

2. Ask yourself: Who or what is the pronoun referring to?

3. Find the noun that answers that question.

Remember: You can't just change a pronoun into a noun. You need to find the noun that the pronoun is replacing.
