Grammar
1. Object Pronouns
Subjects are what
a sentence is about. For example:
- I like rice.
In this sentence I is the subject - I
is what the sentence is about.
Objects are what
is affected by the action of the subject. For
example:
- I want a table.
- I am reading a book.
Object pronouns are
used instead of object nouns, usually because
we already know what the object is.
- My friend's name is Hyun Ju. I really like
her.
- I like this book. I read it every day.
The Subject and Object
Pronouns are as follows:
|
Singular
I - Me
You - You
He - Him
She - Her
It - It
|
Plural
We - Us
You - You
They - Them
|
Subject pronouns
are not normally used on their own in short
answers. We use object pronouns, for example:
- Who wants some candy? Me! / Not me!
- Who wants some candy? I / Not I! This is very
unusual.
