The pronoun case is the use of the pronoun as the subject or the object of a sentence, or to show possession. Examples:

The pronouns that function as the subject of a sentence or a clause are: I, we, he, she, they, and who.

The pronouns that function as the object of a verb or a preposition are: me, us, him, her, them, and whom.

The pronouns that function as a subject or an object are: you and it.

There are two types of pronouns that show possession, the possessive pronouns and the possessive adjectives.

Possessive pronouns take the place of a noun that belongs to someone or something.

They are: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs.

Possessive adjectives describe a noun as belonging to someone or something. A possessive adjective is placed just before the noun it describes.

They are: my, your, his, her, their, its.
