ABSTRACT
There are a number of different types of pronoun, and most of them are treated in Chapter 5. This chapter explains the forms and uses of the persoNal proNouNs, i.e. those which refer to:
• the speaker(s), i.e. English I and we – the first persoN
• the person(s) addressed, i.e. English you – the secoNd persoN
• other person(s) or thing(s) mentioned, i.e. English he, she, it and they – the third persoN
The personal pronouns have different forms to show plural, case and, in the third person, gender. These forms are given in Table 3.1.
