What you'll learn
By the end of this lesson, you'll be able to choose the right subject pronoun for any person or thing and always keep the subject in your sentences.
When do I use it?
Subject pronouns tell you who performs the action. English sentences almost always need one, even when the meaning is obvious. Use the pronoun right before the verb: "She works," "We eat," "It rains."
How do I form it?
The pronoun goes before the verb and matches the person or thing you're talking about.
I am a student. You are my friend. He is my brother. She is my sister. It is a cat. We live in the same city. They are my parents.
Common mistakes for Spanish speakers
Don't drop the subject. Spanish allows "Trabajo todos los días", but English needs a pronoun: "I work every day." A missing subject sounds incomplete. Also, "it" has no gender in English: a table or a cat is always "it", never "he" or "she".
Think of the pronoun as the engine of the sentence. Without it, the verb has no driver.
