Grammar

Definition: A noun identifies a person, animal, place, thing, or idea.
It’s the backbone of any sentence, providing the essential subject or object.

Examples:
Common Nouns: These refer to general things (e.g., “dog,” “book,” “city”).
Proper Nouns: These name specific entities (e.g., “John,” “Paris,” “The Great Gatsby”).
Abstract Nouns: Represent concepts or feelings (e.g., “love,” “freedom,” “happiness”).
Function: Nouns can be subjects, objects, or part of prepositional phrases.

Pronouns:
Definition: A pronoun takes the place of a noun, making sentences less repetitive.


Types: Subject Pronouns: Used as the subject of a sentence (e.g., “I,” “he,” “she,” “we,” “they”).
Object Pronouns: Used as the object (e.g., “me,” “him,” “her,” “us,” “them”).
Possessive Pronouns: Show ownership (e.g., “my,” “his,” “our,” “their”).
Examples:
“Joe saw Jill, and he waved at her.”
“This is she speaking.”
“Give her the book.”

Special Cases:
Who: Refers to people and agrees with the pronoun it replaces (e.g., “It is I who am sorry.”).
Which/That: Singular or plural based on the subject
(e.g., “He is the only one of those men who is always on time.”).
