Gender is the key to using the correct pronoun for a proper noun (the name of a person or thing). Is the proper noun the name of a male or a female person, or the name of a thing? For example:
Michaelangelo's David is a tourist attraction. It stands at Academy of Fine Arts of Florence in Italy.
The pronoun 'it' is taking the place of the proper noun 'David' because David is the name of a statue, a thing, not a person.
This is my friend, Jess. (He or she?) is a student at the University.
We don't know if Jess is a male or a female, but the speaker (Jess's friend) does know and will use the appropriate pronoun.
We call our black rabbit Jet. We got it from my sister's farm.
In this example, we don't need to know if Jet is a male or a female rabbit because we can use the gender-less pronoun 'it' for an animal.
No, not all pronouns, proper nouns, and adjectives are capitalized. Only proper nouns, such as names of specific people, places, or things, are capitalized. Pronouns and regular adjectives are not usually capitalized unless they appear at the beginning of a sentence or are part of a proper noun.
Pronouns such as "he," "she," "it," "they," "we," and "you" are used as substitutes for proper nouns like specific names of people or objects.
I assume you mean "What are proper pronouns?" The most common proper pronoun is when people refer to God as "He", "She" or "Him". I suppose if God were actually real and you actually met Her then you would have to say "Nice to meet You". If Jesus was also there you could say you met Them. They are capitalized to show respect the same way that the names of people and places are capitalized. Note that I is always capitalized so presumably I is always a proper pronoun.
The only time a pronoun is capitalized is when it's the first word in the sentence or used as a proper noun:You are my friend.They are my friends.We are friends.'How Green Was My Valley' (movie 1941)The Who, English rock bandYouTube'Dying To Be Me', by Anita Moorjani
