the difference is that nouns are a person, place, or things, while a pronoun takes the place of a noun like it, they, them, him, her.

Nouns are words that name people, places, things, or ideas, while pronouns are used in place of nouns to avoid repetition in writing or speaking. Nouns directly refer to a specific person, place, thing, or idea, whereas pronouns refer to an antecedent noun that has already been mentioned or is clear from the context.
