TASK 1: THINK ABOUT IT


Can you help me?
K 1
TA S

Binibining Klay is making research about the life of Rizal and as


she browsed some information on the internet, she encountered a
word which was not familiar to her. Because of that she became
confused and asked Ginoong Fidel to help her, unfortunately he
was busy finding Mr. Torres. Therefore, Binibining Klay looked up
on the sky to think who can help her and she saw an Eagle/Falcon.
Then, she remembered that there is a bright section named
Eagle/Falcon who can surely help her. The word that she is
unfamiliar with is “peculiar”. In order to help her, the students
should use their dictionaries to find the meaning of the word
peculiar.
CORRECT!

I am Binibining

What is
Pronoun?
Pronoun
• A pronoun is a word used to stand for (or
take the place of ) a noun.

• A word can refer to an earlier noun or


pronoun in the sentence.
5 Types of
Pronouns
Personal Pronouns
• A personal pronoun is a pronoun that is
associated primarily with a particular
person.

• I, you, he, she, it, we, they, me, him, her, us, and
them are all personal pronouns.
Personal Pronouns
• When discussing “person” in terms of the
grammatical, the following rules apply:

• First-person, as in “I”
• Second person, as in “you”
• Third person, as in “It, he, she"
Personal Pronouns
Personal pronouns provide us with the following
information:
• The person – Who is speaking?
• The number – Is the pronoun plural or
singular?
• The gender – Is the pronoun feminine,
masculine, or neuter?
Personal Pronouns
Our friends are athletes. All of them
are either strong, fast, or both.
Demonstrative Pronouns
• It is a type of pronoun that
demonstrate something.
• It points out a noun.
• The demonstrative pronouns are
that, these, this, and those.
Demonstrative Pronouns
Example:
• I like all kinds of chocolates, but these
are my favorites.
Demonstrative Pronouns
Examples:
• This is my mother’s ring.
• That looks like the car I used to drive.
• These are nice shoes, but they look
uncomfortable.
Possessive Pronouns
• are used in English to avoid repeating
information that is already clear.
• A possessive pronoun represents a noun and also
tells us who owns it.
• The possessive pronouns are "mine," "yours," "his,"
"hers," "ours," and "theirs."
Possessive Pronouns
Examples:
• Jobelle noticed that Ashvil’s dog was bigger
than hers.
Possessive Pronouns
Examples:
• Do you know which table is ours?
• Yours is the nicest living room I’ve
ever been in.
Relative Pronouns
• A relative pronoun is one which is used to refer
to nouns, whether they are people, places, things,
animals, or ideas.

• The relative pronouns are which, that, whose,


whoever, whomever, who, and whom.
Relative Pronouns
Five common relative pronouns are:
Who: Refers to a person (as the verb’s subject)
Whom: Refers to a person (as the verb’s object)
Which: Refers to an animal or thing
What: Refers to a nonliving thing
That: Refers to a person, animal, or thing
Relative Pronouns
Example:
• The woman who came to the door left flowers for you.
• I am not sure whom this book belongs to.
• Interpretative dance, which I find a bit disconcerting, is all
the rage.
• Is this what you were talking about?
• She finally visited the coffee shop that had such great
reviews.
Relative Pronouns
Example:
• Where did you buy the dress that you
wore last week?
Relative Pronouns
Examples:
• The cyclist who won the race trained hard.
• The pants that I bought yesterday are already
stained.
• The four team leaders, whomever the
committee selects, will be at tomorrow’s
meeting.
Reflexive/Intensive Pronouns
• The reflexive and intensive pronoun ends "-self"
or "-selves".
• The reflexive and intensive pronouns are
"myself," "yourself," "herself," "himself," "itself,"
"ourselves," "yourselves," "oneself" and "themselves."
Reflexive Pronouns
• A reflexive pronoun is a pronoun that “reflects”
directly back onto the subject of the sentence.
• These pronouns always end in -self or -selves,
such as himself or themselves, and they are
essential to understanding the meaning of the
sentence. 
Reflexive Pronouns
Example:
“He had to force himself to work out every morning
in order to achieve his fitness goals”.
vs.
“He had to force to work out every morning in order
to achieve his fitness goals”. 
Intensive Pronouns
• An intensive pronoun is a pronoun that
“intensifies” the subject.
• These pronouns also end in -self or -selves,
such as herself or ourselves, but they are not
essential to understanding the meaning of the
sentence. 
Intensive Pronouns
Example:
“She completed the marathon herself without
the help of anyone”
vs.
“She completed the marathon without the help
of anyone”.
REMEMBER:
The difference between reflexive and intensive
pronouns is that when you remove a reflexive
pronoun from a sentence, the sentence feels
incomplete. If you were to remove an intensive
pronoun from a sentence, the meaning of the
sentence would not change.
