3.18 Overview of Pronouns
Congratulations! You have now learned how to replace nouns
with pronouns to make more interesting sentences. At the
conclusion of Chapter 1, Nouns, we introduced the Venn
diagram with the noun trophy. This overview uses the same
sentences, but replaces the noun trophy with the appropriate
pronoun.
Remember, the noun chapter concluded with the following
review phrases and sentences: Maria swims,Maria’s bathing
suit,Anna loves Maria, and The gift is for Maria. We’ll now
conclude the pronoun chapter using the same examples except
with pronouns replacing the nouns. Keep in mind that pronouns
are always substitutes for nouns!
