Personal pronouns are words that take the place of a noun for a specific person or thing.

number, does it replace a singular or plural noun or nouns.

gender, does it replace a noun for a female, male, or neuter word.

case, is it used for the subject or the object of a sentence or clause; or is it used to show possession

The personal pronouns are I, you, we, he, she, it, me, us, him, her, they, them.
