A pronoun in the objective case function as the object of a verb or a preposition.The objective pronouns are:you, it, me, us, him, her, them, whom.Examples:We saw him at the mall. (object of the verb)We spoke to him at the mall. (object of the preposition)
Colloquially you can use either, but if you were to say 'in the mall' you would likely be referring to an object. There's a bookstore in the mall. If you said 'at the mall', you would presumably be referring to a person. Where is John? He's at the mall with his girlfriend. Of course, 'mall' can mean the physical building complex, in which case anything can be 'in' the mall, but 'at the mall would almost always refer to a person.
In that example, the verb is intransitive. There is no direct object.
There is no preposition. The word "inside" is an adverb, because it has no object. In the sentence "I like playing video games inside the mall" the word inside becomes a preposition, with the object mall.
The corresponding object pronoun for the subject pronoun 'he' is him. Example:Jeffrey was at the mall. He was trying on shoes, so I sat down next to him.
A noun or pronoun in the objective case is a word that functions as the object of a verb or a preposition. Examples:noun: We likewine afterdinner. (wine is the object of the verb 'like'; dinner is the object of the preposition 'after')pronoun: John saw herat the mall with them. (her is the object of the verb 'saw'; them is the object of the preposition 'with')
It depends. Are you and John the object or are you the subject? If the two of you are the subject, it is John and I (John and I are going to the mall.) If the two of you are the object, it is John and me (You should come with John and me.) If you are fluent in English, a simple test is to toss John out of the sentence. Does 'Me am going to the mall,' sound right? How about 'You should come with I.' Once you determine that 'I am going to the mall' or 'You should come with me' you then invite John back into his proper place in the sentence and when you get to the mall, treat him to lunch to make up for tossing him out.
Subject pronouns are used as the subject of a sentence (e.g. I, you, he, she, it, we, they), while object pronouns are used as the object of a verb or preposition (e.g. me, you, him, her, it, us, them). Subject pronouns perform the action, while object pronouns receive the action.
The personal pronoun 'me' is used to take the place of a singular noun (name) or pronoun for the person speaking as the object of a verb or a preposition.Examples:The boss called me to authorize the expense. (direct object of the verb 'called')Mom made me some cookies. (indirect object of the verb 'made')James is going to the mall with me. (object of the preposition 'with')The corresponding singular, personal pronoun that is used as a subject is I.Example: I called James to go to the mall with me.
Early 1980's. The price chopper moved in across Noland Rd to anchor the strip mall built to replace it.
The pronouns 'her' and 'she' are used to take the place of a singular noun for a female. The pronoun 'she' is used as the subject of a sentence or a clause; for example: She likes ice cream. (subject of the sentence) The ice cream she likes best is chocolate. (subject of the clause) The pronoun 'her' is used as the object of a verb or a preposition; for example: I saw her at the mall. (direct object of the verb 'saw') I spoke to her at the mall. (object of the preposition 'to') I gave her your message. (indirect object of the verb 'gave')
Yes, the direct object of a verb can answer 'what' or 'whom'; a direct object can also answer 'where'.Examples:Myron ate an apple. (ate 'what')We met Myrna at the mall. (met 'whom')Mya visited London on her class trip. (visited 'where')
