Nouns, noun phrases, and pronouns can be used as the subject of a sentence or a clause, or as the object of a verb or a preposition.

Examples:

Jim was late for school. (the noun 'Jim' is the subject of the sentence)

Jim who overslept was late for school. (the pronoun 'who' is the subject of the relative clause)

He was up too late the night before. (the pronoun 'he' is the subject of the sentence)

Jack and Jill were ready. Theyare always on time. (the noun phrase 'Jack and Jill' is the subject of the first sentence; the pronoun 'they' is the subject of the second sentence)

Jim's mom woke him at seven. (the pronoun 'him' is the direct object of the verb 'woke')

Jim didn't have time for a good breakfast. (the noun phrase 'a good breakfast' is the object of the preposition 'for')

Jack and Jill's mom made breakfast for them. (the pronoun 'them' is the object of the preposition 'for')
