Nouns are the words that names people, place, animal and things. Around us we see so many things. Everything that we see has some name. Example: computer, blackboard, chalk, book, teacher etc.
Common nouns are the general or generic name of person, place, animal and things. Example: tree, man, mountain, box etc. Common noun is only capitalized if it is part of a title or it is used in the beginning of sentence.
Proper nouns are the specific or particular name of person, place, animal and things. Example: Dia, Mt. Everest, Delhi etc. Proper noun is always capitalized.
Pronouns take the place of nouns.
We can replace "Jasmine" with pronouns like this:
Jasmine wanted ice cream so she went to the store. She was having a birthday party.
Pronouns help us tell better stories!
The most common pronoun is it.
You can use it to replace things.
Pick the ball up = Pick it up
Personal pronouns replace names of people.
Here are some personal pronouns:
Use the pronouns he, she, or it to take the place of one person or thing in the subject of a sentence.
example: Sally was happy. She won the prize.
Use the pronoun they to take the place of more than one person or thing in the subject of a sentence.
Example: Sally and Ben watched a show. They couldn't stop laughing.
Dan has a new bike. Dan rode the bike to school. Then Dan rode the bike to the park.
will replace to - Dan has a new bike. He rode it to school. Then he rode it to the park.
Tip: We don't replace the first "Dan" so that we can tell what the other pronouns are talking about.
What else is replaced? Bike!
Now, we have two pronouns! He and it.
