๐ค English Pronouns
Pronouns are words that replace nouns so you don't have to repeat the same person, place, animal, or thing over and over. English uses several kinds of pronouns, including subject pronouns, object pronouns, possessive pronouns, and reflexive pronouns. Learning them will help you speak and write more naturally. Each English word or phrase includes translations in Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Portuguese.
