The word 'in' is a preposition, or an adverb if used without an object (e.g. he came in). The word "in" is never a pronoun, but can be a colloquial noun (he had an 'in' with the owner) or an adjective-noun form (in-joke).

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence.

Example: Mark set out clean clothes so he could get ready quickly in the morning.

  • The pronoun 'he' takes the place of the noun 'Mark' in the second part of the sentence.
  • The noun 'morning' is the object of the preposition 'in'.
