(the first and second person pronouns "I, me, we, us, you" rarely use the antecedent)Who would like some brownies? (there is no antecedent needed for the interrogative pronoun 'who')Who made the brownies? My mom made the brownies. (the pronoun 'who' takes the place of the noun 'mom', the answer to the questions)The person who made the brownies is my mom. (the antecedent of the relative pronoun 'who' is 'mom' which comes at the end of the sentence)Everyone wanted brownies. (indefinite pronouns seldom use an antecedent)She looks great. Her dress is beautiful. (the speaker and the listener may not even know who 'she' is, it may be a stranger that passed by or someone they see on TV; the antecedent is unnecessary because they're both looking at the person)A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun antecedent (whether it is mentioned or not).
