Here's a breakdown:
* Pronoun: A word that replaces a noun (like a name) to avoid repetition.
* Refer: Pronouns *refer* back to a noun that has already been mentioned.
Examples:
* She went to the store. (She refers to a person mentioned earlier.)
* It was a beautiful day. (It refers to the weather or the day.)
* They are coming over for dinner. (They refers to a group of people.)
