What is a pronoun and noun in sentence?

Let's break down pronouns and nouns in sentences with an example:

Sentence: "She went to the store to buy apples."

Nouns:

* Store: This is a noun because it's a person, place, or thing.

* Apples: This is also a noun because it's a thing.

Pronoun:

* She: This is a pronoun because it replaces a noun (we don't know who "she" is, but it could be a person's name).

Explanation:

* Pronouns are words that stand in for nouns. They help us avoid repeating the same noun over and over. Common pronouns include: I, me, he, she, it, they, we, you, this, that, these, those, mine, yours, his, hers, etc.

* Nouns are the names of people, places, things, or ideas. They are the building blocks of sentences.

Let's try another example:

Sentence: "The dog chased its tail in the park. "

Nouns:

* Dog

* Tail

* Park

Pronoun:

* Its (replaces "dog's")
