Pronouns are words that take the place of nouns to make a sentence easier to say and read. How I remember what pronouns are and how to use them is to make some sentences without using any pronouns when they should be used. For example:
John left John's book in John's locker.
It's easy to see that we don't talk that way. We say, 'John left his book in his locker.'
Mary's dog got mud all over Mary'sdog's paws and Mary's dog tracked the mud all over Mary's floor.
It's a pretty clumsy way to say it (I'm Mary, by the way). We would say:
My dog got mud all over his paws and hetracked the mud all over my floor.
