What Are Personal Pronouns?

• Personal pronouns are words that take the place of a noun in a sentence. They are used to refer to people, animals, or things without using their names.
• Personal pronouns can be either subject pronouns (used as the subject of a sentence) or object pronouns (used as the object of a sentence).
