Replacing the Noun with the Correct Personal Pronoun

We use personal pronouns depending on the number:

• Singular means one person.

• Plural means a lot of people.



 

• Use we when talking about a group of people that includes you. This group of people is doing the action in the sentence.

We ate lunch.

 

• Use them when talking about friends or another group of people. This group of people is receiving the action in the sentence.

The librarian asked them to keep quiet.

 

• Use he when talking about a friend (male) or some other person. This person is doing the action in the sentence.

Is he coming?
