Part 1: Personal Pronouns worksheet 1

Personal pronouns are used to take the place of nouns that name persons. Personal pronouns refer to persons in these three ways:

1. When the pronoun refers to the person speaking, it is in the first person: I, me, we, us.

2. When the pronoun refers to the person spoken to, it is in the second person: you, your, yours.

3. When the pronoun refers to some other person or thing that is spoken of, it is in the third person: he, his, him, she, her, It, they, their, them.

Pronouns in the third person that refer to male persons are said to be in the masculine gender.

Pronouns that refer to female persons are said to be in the feminine gender. Pronouns that refer to things are said to be in the neuter gender.
