Rewrite the first sentence of Ch. 27 in your own words. Identify the three basic types of
pronouns mentioned on pp. 495–496. Explain why using pronouns may help make your writing
more effective.
Pronouns are used to replace other nouns in order to avoid repetition of the
original noun.
Three basic types of pronouns are subject pronouns, object pronouns, and
possessive pronouns. By using pronouns it will make your writing more clear
and assertive. If you do not use pronouns in your writing then it will force you
to become repetitive and confuse the reader. For example, "My Uncle Bobby
was in the special forces and Uncle Bobby has seen a lot" you would say "My
Uncle Bobby was in the special forces and he has seen a lot". You must also
make sure that the noun and the pronoun are in agreement with eachother.
For example, "Uncle Bobby was in the special forces and she has seen a lot"
you would say "My Uncle Bobby was in the special forces and he has seen a
lot". You must be able to identify the tense of the pronoun and make sure you
are using it correctly.
