Pronouns are used to replace nouns in a sentence to avoid repetition and make writing or speaking more concise. They help clarify relationships between people or things in a sentence by indicating who is performing the action or to whom the action is being done. Pronouns also help maintain coherence and avoid confusion in written and spoken communication.
