Is it a common noun or a proper noun?

Answer 1

The word 'it' is not a noun.

The word 'it' is a personal pronoun, a word that takes the place of a singular noun for a thing in a sentence.

Example: You may borrow the book. It is an interesting story. I think you will enjoy it.

Answer 2

The word 'it' is not a noun; the word 'it' is a personal pronoun, a word that takes the place of a noun for a thing in a sentence. Example:

My hat is new. Do you like it? (The pronoun 'it' takes the place of the noun 'hat' in the second sentence.)

You may have my copy of the book, I read it last semester.

That cake is delicious, I would recommend it.

The river looks peaceful now, but in the spring itruns wild.

The pronoun 'it' can also take the place of a proper noun; for example:

The Statue of Liberty is a symbol of freedom; itwas a gift from the people of France.

Answer 3

A common noun is a general, non-specific term (e.g. cat, city), while a proper noun is a specific name for a person, place, or thing (e.g. Garfield, New York).
