Grammar Post #4 Pronouns

A pronoun is defined as a word that takes the place of a noun. They are often used in one of three different ways. As objective, subjective and possessive. They can be tricky to use in the proper way in an essay and are often used in the wrong way. I am one that is guilty of that in many of my essays. I often mistake a subjective with a possessive pronoun. One of the best ways I have found is to always re-read the sentence as see if it flows like you meant it too. This sound help in trying to determine the pronoun.
