Personal Pronouns
WHAT IS IT?
A personal pronoun is a pronoun typically used to refer to the people or things that a speaker is referring to. Personal pronouns are usually used to replace proper names, and instead of repeating the names over and over we use personal pronouns instead.
Example:
Marcus is studying hard because Marcus has a test tomorrow (sounds repetitive and weird)
So we use a personal pronoun to replace the name Marcus
Marcus is studying hard because he has a test tomorrow
