1. Subject Pronouns:
* These pronouns are the subject of the verb, meaning they perform the action.
* They come before the verb, not after.
* Examples: I am happy. He is reading. We went to the park.
2. Object Pronouns:
* These pronouns are the object of the verb, meaning they receive the action.
* They come after the verb.
* Examples: She saw me. He called her. We helped them.
3. Reflexive Pronouns:
* These pronouns reflect back to the subject of the verb. They are used when the subject and object are the same.
* They often come after the verb, but not always.
* Examples: He hurt himself. She bought herself a new dress. We enjoyed ourselves.
4. Other Types:
* Possessive pronouns (mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs) are used to show ownership and typically come before the noun they modify.
* Demonstrative pronouns (this, that, these, those) are used to point to something specific and usually come before the noun they modify.
Example Sentence:
"They gave me a gift, and I thanked them for it."
* They - subject pronoun
* gave - verb
* me - object pronoun
* I - subject pronoun
* thanked - verb
* them - object pronoun
