Subject Pronouns

Subject pronouns replace a noun that does the action and appear before the verb in sentences. They guide who is doing what and make speech and writing smoother.

Use a subject pronoun to name the actor when the sentence first appears or when you want to emphasize who does the action. You can omit the pronoun in languages like Spanish, but in English the subject pronoun is usually required.

Subject pronouns name the doer of an action and appear before the verb. They make sentences clear and natural. Learn the short list of pronouns and pay attention to whether English requires the pronoun even when your native language drops it.
