In order to tell which is a subject and which is an object, you must understand what those functions are. The function is the same for a noun or a pronoun.
A subject can be a noun or a pronoun; a subject can be the subject of a sentence or a clause.
- A sentence is a group of words that includes a subject and a verb (which tells what the subject is or does), that expresses a complete thought.
- A clause is a group of words that includes a subject and a verb that does not express a complete thought.
Subject of the sentence: The cake is chocolate. Ilike chocolate.
Subject of the clause: The cake that mother madeis chocolate. She knows what I like.
An object can be a noun or a pronoun; an object can be the object of a verb or a preposition.
- A verb is the word that tells what the object is or is doing.
- A preposition is a word, usually coming in front of a noun or pronoun, telling its relation to another word in a sentence (words like of, for, in, on, with, to, from, etc.)
Object of the verb: I like chocolate. Do you like it? Yes, I also like strawberry.
Object of the preposition: I like chocolate cake with marshmallow. Mom made some for my birthday.
The next step is to learn the pronouns. Start with the personal pronouns. A personal pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun for a specific person or thing. The personal pronounsare:
First person, singular, subject: I
First person, singular, object: me
First person, plural, subject: we
First person, plural, object: us
Second person, singular and plural, subject: you
Second person, singular and plural, object: you
Third person, singular, subject: he, she, it
Third person, singular, object: him, her, it
Third person, plural, subject: they
Third person plural, object: them

A pronoun is the subject of a sentence when it is performing the action, while it is the object when it receives the action. For example, in the sentence "She threw the ball," "she" is the subject as she is performing the action of throwing, and "ball" is the object as it receives the action.
