The word "I" is not a noun. The word "I" is a pronoun, a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence.

The pronoun "I":

  • is a personal pronoun, a word that takes the place of a noun for a specific person or thing.
  • the pronoun "I" takes the place of the noun (or name) for the person speaking (first person).
  • the pronoun "I" functions as the subject of a sentence or a clause (a subjective pronoun).
  • the pronoun "I" is the only pronoun that is always capitalized.
The corresponding first person, personal pronoun that functions as the object of a verb or a preposition is "me".

When a person is writing or conversing, the person rarely uses their own name; for example:

  • I am her sister.
  • She is like a sister to me.
