A subjective pronoun is a pronoun that takes the place of a noun as the subject of a sentence or a clause.

Examples:

  • When George got to 19th Street, he got off the train. (the personal pronoun 'he' takes the place of the noun 'George' as the subject of the second part of the compound sentence)
  • The Jacksons who are my neighbors gave me these flowers. (the relative pronoun 'who' is the subject of the relative clause)
  • Everyone seemed to have a good time at the party. (the indefinite pronoun 'everyone' is the subject of the sentence)

Where and when do you use the objective and subjective case of pronouns?

You make this decision by reference to the verb to which the pronouns relate. You use the subjective case where the pronoun is the subject of the verb (for example: "He fed the dog"). You use the objective case where the pronoun is the object of the verb (for example: "The dog bit him"). You would not say "Him fed the dog" or "The dog bit he". You would say "My sister and I love our mother", not "My sister and me love our mother". You would say "Our mother loves my sister and me". You would not say "My mother loves my sister and I".
