    2. Pronouns Grade Six

    3. Definition A pronoun takes the place of a noun. That means it can replace a person, place, thing, or idea. Ex. Mark could be replaced by he or him.

    4. Definition An antecedent is the noun that the pronoun replaces. Ex. Mark gave his lunch money to Joe. (The pronoun is his. His is replacing Mark; therefore, Mark is the antecedent.)

    5. Definition First person means the person being spoken to. Ex. I am Bob. I is speaking in the sentence; therefore, I is a first person pronoun. Other first person pronouns are: we, me, us, my, mine, our, ours, myself, ourselves

    6. Definition Second person means the person being spoken to. Ex. I saw you at the party. The person, you is being spoken to; therefore, you is a second person pronoun. Other second person pronouns are: your, yours, yourself, yourselves

    7. Definition Third person pronouns are being spoken about. Ex. He gave Mary a book. (He is being talked about; therefore, he is a third person pronoun.) Other third person pronouns are: she, it, they, her, him, them, his, hers, its, their, theirs, himself, herself, itself, themselves.

    16. Demonstrative Pronouns Demonstrative pronouns refer to distance. There are four: this that these those This and these refer to things that are near. That and those refer to things that are far.

    17. Interrogative Pronouns Interrogative pronouns are used to ask questions. When an interrogative pronoun is used, the answer to the question is the antecedent to the pronoun. Ex. Who made the cake? Mary did. (Who is used to ask the question. It is the interrogative pronoun. Mary made the cake. She is the antecedent to who.)

    18. Relative Pronouns Relative pronouns are used to begin a relative clause. A relative clause is a group words containing both a subject and a verb, but it is not a complete sentence. A relative clause must follow a noun that it describes; therefore, a relative pronoun will never start a sentence. There are five relative pronouns.

    19. Examples of Relative Pronouns The relative clause is underlined in the following sentences. Ex. The woman who builds planes is amazing. Ex. The talked the boy whom I met on vacation. Ex. The boy whose pencil is broken is having trouble taking his test. Ex. I saw the movie which had an interesting plot. Ex. I won the prize that was worth ten dollars.
