Personal Pronouns

Pronouns take the place of nouns. For example, in the sentence ‘Lucy rode her bike’, Lucy can be replaced by a pronoun, like ‘she’ – ‘she rode her bike’. Here are some examples of common personal pronouns:

He is good at football

They love to gossip

She is riding a dragon

That's a pretty ring. I love it

Possessive Pronouns

The ring is mine

Reflexive Pronouns

The men scared themselves with their reflection

He loves himself
