Types of pronouns

The term pronoun covers many words, some of which do not fall easily
under the generic description of words that replace nouns. There are
several different kinds of pronouns, including:

Personal pronouns (e.g., he, they)

Demonstrative pronouns (e.g., this, these)
Interrogative pronouns (e.g., which, who)
Indefinite pronouns (e.g., none, several)
Possessive pronouns (e.g., his, your)
Reciprocal pronouns (e.g., each other, one another)
Relative pronouns (e.g., which, where)
Reflexive pronouns (e.g., itself, himself)
Intensive pronouns (e.g., itself, himself)
The Different Types of Pronouns
The term pronoun covers many words, some of which do not fall easily
under the description given in the section What are Pronouns? There are
many different kinds of pronouns. In general, these do not cause
difficulties for native English speakers. The list below is mainly for
reference purposes.
Demonstrative Pronouns
These pronouns are used to demonstrate (or indicate). This, that, these
and those are all demonstrative pronouns.
Example:
This is the one I left in the car.
(In this example, the speaker could be indicating to a mobile phone, in
which case, the pronoun this replaces the words mobile phone.)
Shall I take those?
Indefinite Pronouns
Unlike demonstrative pronouns, which point out specific items,
indefinite pronouns are used for non-specific things. This is the largest
group of pronouns. All, some, any, several, anyone, nobody, each, both,
few, either, none, one and no one are the most common.
Interrogative Pronouns
These pronouns are used in questions. Although they are classified as
pronouns, it is not easy to see how they replace nouns. Who, which,
what, where and how are all interrogative pronouns.
Personal Pronouns
The personal pronouns are I, you, he, she, it, we, they, and who. More
often than not (but not exclusively), they replace nouns representing
people. When most people think of pronouns, it is the personal
pronouns that usually spring to mind.
Relative Pronouns
Relative pronouns are used to add more information to a sentence.
Which, that, who (including whom and whose) and where are all relative
pronouns.
Absolute Possessive Pronouns
These pronouns also show possession. Unlike possessive pronouns (see
above), which are adjectives to nouns, these pronouns sit by themselves.
Mine, yours, his, hers, ours and theirs are all absolute possessive
pronouns.
Reciprocal Pronouns
Reciprocal pronouns are used for actions or feelings that are
reciprocated. The two most common reciprocal pronouns are each other
and one another.
Reflexive Pronouns
A reflexive pronoun ends ...self or ...selves and refers to another noun or
pronoun in the sentence (usually the subject of the sentence). The
reflexive pronouns aremyself, yourself, herself, himself, itself, ourselves,
yourselves and themselves.
Intensive Pronouns
An intensive pronoun (sometimes called an emphatic pronoun) refers
back to another noun or pronoun in the sentence to emphasize it (e.g.,
to emphasize that it is the thing carrying out the action).
Adjectives
Adjectives are words that are used to describe (what kind of?) nouns and
pronouns and to quantify (how much of?) and identify (which one?)
them. Adjectives are what define nouns and give them characteristics to
differentiate them from other nouns.
There are three rooms in the house.
Here "Three" is also an adjective as it's telling the quantity/the number
of the noun "rooms", answering the question "how many rooms?".
There are five categories of adjectives
Adjectives of Quality - These adjectives are used to describe the nature
of a noun. They give an idea about the characteristics of the noun by
answering the question "what kind" (Honest, Kind, Large, Small, Bulky,
Beautiful, Ugly etc. )
Dhaka is a large city with many historical monuments.
Nixa is a beautiful Girl.
Adjectives of Quantity - These adjectives help to show the amount or
the approximate amount of the noun or pronoun. These adjectives do
not provide exact numbers; rather they tell us the amount of the noun.
All, Many, Half, Few,Enough, Great etc.
They have finished most of the rice.
Many people came to visit Cox's Bazar.

Adjectives of Number - These adjectives are used to show the number of

nouns and their place in an order. Adjectives of number have three
different sections; they are -
Definite Numeral Adjective - Those which clearly denote an exact
number of nouns.

One, Two, Twenty etc. also known as Cardinals.

First, Second, Third, Fourth etc. also known as Ordinals.

Indefinite Numeral Adjective - Those adjectives that do not give an exact

numerical amount but just give idea of the amount. (Some, Many, Few,
Any, Several etc)
Certain flowers are beautiful.
Some students are clever.
All persons must live.
Are there any fruits in refrigerator?
There are no definitions in this chapter
Distributive Numeral Adjective -Those adjectives that are used to refer to
individual nouns within the whole amount- each, every, other,either, and
neither.

Each book in the series had a foreword by a noted scholar.

Either of these movies would be interesting to me..
Demonstrative Adjectives - These adjectives are used to point out or
indicate a particular noun or pronoun using the adjectives - This, That,
These and Those.
That bag belongs to Habib.
I like those pens.
Interrogative Adjectives - These adjectives are used to ask questions
about nouns or in relation to nouns, they are - Where, What, Which and
Whose.
What assignment did I miss out on?
Whose pen is this?
Sometime we need to use more than one adjective to describe a noun in
a satisfactory manner. In these cases, commas are used to separate the
adjectives but some series of adjectives do not require a comma.

Coordinate Adjectives - are adjectives that appear in sequence with one

another to modify the same noun. For example, the adjectives in the
phrases bright, sunny day and dark and stormy night are coordinate
adjectives. Coordinate adjectives are usually separated with either
commas or and, and and always comes before the final adjective..
She was a generous, loving, kind women.
She was a loving, generous, kind women.
We were prepared for a long, tedious, planning session.
We were prepared for a tedious,long,planning session.
In this case,we can change adjective place the adjectives only need to be
separated by commas.
Non-coordinate Adjectives -Non-coordinate adjectives should not be
separated through comma as they are not equal. One adjective takes
precedence over the other non-coordinate adjective.

She drives a blue metal bicycle.

(In this sentence, we do not need to use a comma between 'blue' and
'metal' and cannot change their places because we would not say as "a
metal blue car" or "a blue and metal car".)
Comparison of Adjectives
When we want to compare two or more nouns using adjectives, we use
the comparative and superlative forms of the adjective to show the
comparison between the nouns. E.g. -

Honey is sweet, sugar is sweeter but victory is the sweetest.

In this sentence, we are comparing the three nouns using the positive,
comparative and superlative forms of the word sweet.

Positive Form -
These are the simple adjectives that simply describe the noun without
comparing it to another - big, sweet, clean, etc.
He has a big black cat.
She is a sweet girl.
Comparative Form -
These are used when we are comparing two nouns and need to show
which noun possesses the adjective or character in a greater or lesser
amount, when compared with the other. - bigger, sweeter, cleaner, etc.
I have a big cat but hers is bigger
She is sweeter than the other girls.
Superlative Form -
This form is used when three or more nouns are being compared and we
need to show that one or more of the nouns posses the adjective or
characteristic to the highest amount possible. We usually add the before
the superlative form. - biggest, sweetest, cleanest, etc.

He has the biggest cat in the colony.

The cupboard is the cleanest thing in the house.
Making Comparatives and Superlatives
There are certain rules that must be followed in the making of the
comparatives and superlatives of the adjectives. Not all adjectives form
their comparatives and superlatives in the same way and there are also
some irregular adjectives that form completely different comparative
and superlative forms.
Single Syllable Words and Double Syllable Words ending with -y, -er, -ow,
We use -er to make the comparative and -est to make the superlative.

Positive Comparative Superlative

Black Blacker Blackest
Fair Fairer Fairest
Clever Cleverer Cleverest

When there is a silent e at the end of the positive form, we remove that
and add -er and -est

Positive. Comparative. Superlative

Nice. Nicer. Nicest
Late. Later Latest
When the adjective ends with a y, we convert the y into i before adding
-er and -est
Positive. Comparative. Superlative
Pretty. Prettier. Prettiest
Lazy Lazier. Laziest
If the adjective is a small one with little stress on the vowel, we double
the last consonant.
Positive Comparative. Superlative
Hot Hotter Hottest
Wet Wetter. Wettest
Other Words with Two or More Syllables -
For other double syllable words that do not end with -y, -er, -ow, -le, and
for adjectives with more than two syllables we use more and most to
form the comparatives and superlatives.

Positive. Comparative. Superlative

Difficult. More Difficult. Most Difficult
Careful. More Careful. Most Careful
Handsome. More Handsome Most Handsome
Interesting. More Interesting.
Most Interesting
