Ingles 2, WINTER Term 2018


UDP; Inglés 2, WINTER TERM  2018.



__________________________________________

TOPIC 1

What is a  pronoun ?

Pronouns are words we use in the place of a full noun.
We have both subject and object pronouns:
Ex. 
Peter is Chilean
He is Chilean

I saw Mary two hours ago
I saw her two hours ago

1.1 What is a subject pronoun ?

The subject of a sentence is a person or a thing that performs the action of the verb

Subject pronouns are used to replace the subject (person or thing) of a verb.

We do NOT  normally say:

John is tall and John is intelligent

Saying the word "John" twice is repetitive and does not sound natural.

We replace the Subject (John) that appears the second time with a subject pronoun to avoid repetition (and in this case to avoid saying the name John again.)
So we would say: 

John is tall and he is intelligent

We replace the second "John" with the Subject Pronoun "He".


Subject pronouns, exercises 

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10

     1.2 What is an object pronoun ?


 The seven basic pronouns have one form when they are used as subjects and another form when they are used as objects. 
Subjects are what the sentence is about. 


Objects are what is affected by the action of the subject.

  • I like orange juice. (I is the subject).
  • I read books. (Books is the object as it is receiving the action).


Subject pronouns, exercises

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10

1.3 What is a possessive adjective?

Possessive adjectives 

- my, your, his, her, its, our, your, their - 


They modify the noun following it in order to show possession.


Examples: 
  • I'll get my bag.
  • Is this your luggage?
Possessive adjectives are often confused with possessive pronouns.
Examples:
  • Your bike is blue.

  • (your is an adjective which modifies bike)
  • Mine is yellow.


  • (mine is a pronoun which functions as the subject of the verb is)

Possessive adjectives, exercises

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10

1.4 What is a possessive pronoun?

We use possessive pronouns to refer to a specific person/people or thing/things (the "antecedent") belonging to a person/people (and sometimes belonging to an animal/animals or thing/things).
We use possessive pronouns depending on:
  • number: singular (eg: mine) or plural (eg: ours)
  • person: 1st person (eg: mine), 2nd person (eg: yours) or 3rd person (eg: his)
  • gender: male (his), female (hers
Below are the possessive pronouns, followed by some example sentences. Notice that each possessive pronoun can:
  • be subject or object
  • refer to a singular or plural antecedent
