A noun (anchor) is used as the subject of a sentence or clause, and as the object of a verb or a preposition.

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence. The pronoun that takes the place of the noun 'anchor' is it.

Examples:

  • The anchor was caught in the seaweed. It was difficult to retrieve. (the noun 'anchor' is the subject of the first sentence; the pronoun 'it' is the subject of the second sentence)
  • This mirror needs a new wall anchor. It has to be large enough to hold that much weight. (the noun 'anchor' is the direct object of the verb 'needs'; the pronoun 'it' is the subject of the second sentence)
