A pronoun can replace a noun or a pronoun.

Examples:
  • When George got to Nineteenth Street he got off the train. (the pronoun 'he' takes the place of the proper noun 'George' as the subject of the second part of the sentence)
  • The fence is a nice style but it needs painting. (the pronoun 'it' takes the place of the common noun 'fence' as the subject of the second part of the compound sentence)
  • You and I can finish this if we work together. (the pronoun 'we' takes the place of the pronouns 'you and I' as the subject of the second part of the sentence)
