2. Have you ever heard about this?
3. That is beautiful!
4. Have you seen that?

Interrogative Pronouns

Definition: The interrogative pronoun maybe is a pronoun that is used to ask an issue or question.

What, which, which, whose are interrogative pronouns. He just has a personal form. They do not differentiate between singular and plural. Interrogative pronouns form answers to questions that ask for more than a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer.

Interrogative Pronouns Examples:

1. Who is likes to participate in college functions?
2. Which is the better resort to stay in the summer?
3. What do you like about this dress?
4. Whose father is in the army?
5. To whom you will share your lunch?

Indefinite and Distributive Pronouns

Definition: These are pronouns that do not refer to a specific person or thing.

Indefinite pronouns are words like: One, None, Nothing, Nobody, All, Few, Some, Many, Anybody, and Everybody.

They are commonly used.

Distributive pronouns also do not specify persons or things, but they are always singular, referring to one thing at a time.

Each, Either, Neither words are distributive pronoun.

5 Indefinite and Distributive Pronouns Examples:

1. I’m hungry but  I have nothing to eat for dinner.
2. Someone called you in the morning.
3. I have learned everything for the exam.
4. We may take either of these two dresses.
5. Each of these children deserved a prize.

(a) we can say-

Sheela is absent because Sheela is ill.
But it is better to avoid repetition of the noun Sheela and say that Sheela is absent because she is ill.

Definition: The word which is used in place of a noun is called a pronoun.

(The word ‘pronoun’ means ‘for a noun’.)

(b) If the number of the noun is singular, the persons of the male gender are called ‘that’. His. His, himself. Persons of the female gender take, ‘that. Him, her, myself. Inanimate objects are referred to by ‘this, that and themselves’.

(c) If the number of the noun is plural, persons and inanimate things of any gender are referred to by ‘they, them, theirs, theirs’.

(d) An animal is usually referred to by the neuter ‘it’, even when the noun indicates only one gender.

• I saw the cow grazing peacefully.

However, if there is something in the situation that draws attention to the gender of the animal, ‘he’ or ‘she’ can be used.

• There is a cow with her calf.

He, she, etc. can be used for animals that appear as characters in a story or for animals that are understood to be members of a family.

• There is a monkey in our house.
• have you seen him?

(e) ‘His’, ‘His’ and other words made from these are called possessive adjectives. They must agree in gender with the words they refer to. The gender of these possessive adjectives has nothing to do with the nouns they follow:

• Ram gave a gift to his mother. (not his mother)
• Sita gave gifts to her brother as well as sister. (Not his brother or his sister) The bicycle was returned to its owner. (not its owner)
