A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence.

A singular pronoun is a word that takes the place of a singular noun.

An objective pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun and functions as the object of a verb or a preposition.

The objective, singular, personal pronouns are: me, you, him, her, it.

The objective interrogative/relative pronoun is: whom.

Examples:

Mother loves you, James. (direct object of the verb 'loves')

Mother gave me a hug. (indirect object of the verb 'gave')

Mother made a sandwich for her. (object of the preposition 'for')

For whom did she make the sandwich? (interrogative pronoun, object of the preposition 'for')

The one to whom she gave the sandwich was Jane. (relative pronoun, object of the preposition 'to')
