this sight stinks

Another answer

The previous contributor is not only puerile and unhelpful but also illiterate. A sight (something perceived with the eyes) cannot stink (something perceived with the nose). Perhaps he or she intended to communicate that, in his or her opinion, the WikiAnswers website is of poor quality. If so, his or her contribution has sadly done nothing to rectify that misperception.

Unfortunately the original question is not clear. If the questioner could perhaps give an example of what she or he means by 'a big pronoun', a grown-up contributor might be able to give a proper answer.
