it is unclear who had the day off - Lucy or Linda. Clarity could be improved by specifying who had the day off in the sentence.
There are a group of pronouns called indefinite pronouns but no group called definite pronouns. I have only seen that term used once before, it was for definite personal pronouns. The personal pronouns are I, me, you, he, him, she, her, it, we, us, they, them.
"I, he, she, we, they, who" are pronouns used in the subjective case.
You use "his or her" when referring to a singular, gender-neutral subject to indicate belonging or possession. "Their" is used when referring to a plural subject or when the gender of the subject is unknown or irrelevant.
No, adverbs typically modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. Adjectives describe or modify nouns and pronouns.
Sure! Here is a paragraph that includes indefinite pronouns, regular pronouns, irregular verbs, and regular verbs:
Someone needs to tell them that she has been studying irregular verbs all week. I saw him wash the dishes last night. Nobody noticed that they were missing from the party. Anybody could have helped with the cleaning. She will remember to buy groceries on her way home.
Using "me" as a subject pronoun is grammatically incorrect. The correct subject pronoun to use in this instance is "I." For example, it should be "I am going to the store" instead of "Me am going to the store."
The sentence "I myself will cook dinner tonight" is intensive, as the pronoun "myself" is used to emphasize the subject "I" rather than to indicate that the subject is performing an action on itself.
You should consider the number and gender of the antecedent when checking antecedent-pronoun agreement. Make sure that the pronoun matches the antecedent in both number (singular/plural) and gender (masculine/feminine/neuter). Additionally, watch out for ambiguous antecedents that may cause confusion about which noun the pronoun is referring to.

The pronoun 'whom' is an objective pronoun, a word that functions as the object of a verb or a preposition.

Pronouns are words that replace nouns in a sentence to prevent repetition, making language more concise and fluid. They can refer to specific or general entities, express different genders, and indicate various grammatical functions like subject, object, or possessive. Pronouns play a crucial role in communication by helping to maintain clarity and coherence in sentences.
