What is a word that can take place of noun called?

A word that can take the place of a noun is called a pronoun.

Here are some examples:

* I went to the store. (I replaces the noun "person")

* He is my friend. (He replaces the noun "friend")

* They are going to the park. (They replaces the noun "group of people")

* This is my favorite book. (This replaces the noun "book")

* Someone is at the door. (Someone replaces the noun "person")

Pronouns are very important in language because they help us avoid repetition and make our sentences more concise.
