Some pronouns are more general than nouns. For example, the pronoun they can be specific or general.

"Gia and Kara are my friends; they go to my school." In this case we know who 'they' are, the beginning of the sentence tells you.

But you often hear people say, "They say that...". In this case, 'they' could be anyone.

Some pronouns are always general, never specific, such as someone, anyone, anywhere, or anything.
