pronouns

generic pronouns

1 If you mispronounce a word, people might not understand you.

2 One tends to have problems understanding very strong accents.

3 When we talk about an accent, we must not confuse this with pronunciation.

4 They always say that it's never too late to learn a new language.
They should make it compulsory for people to learn two languages at school.

5 If someone phones me, tell them to call back later.
Could the person who left their bag in the library please come and see me?

1 We often use you to mean people in general.

2 We can also use one + third person singular of the verb to mean people in general.
one is much more formal than you and is very rarely used in spoken English.
* We can also use one's as a possessive adjective, e.g. When confronted with danger, one's first reaction is often to freeze.

3 we can also be used to make a general statement of opinion which includes the reader / listener.

4 In informal English, we often use they to talk about other people in general, or people in authority, e.g. They always say... (They = people in general);
They should make it compulsory... (They = the government).

5 We use they, them, and their to refer to one person who may be male or female, instead of using he or she, his or her, etc.

reflexive and reciprocal pronouns

1 You need to look after yourself with that cold.
He's very egocentric. He always talks about himself.

2 I managed to complete the crossword! I was really pleased with myself.

3 We decorated the house ourselves.
There's no way I'm going to do it for you. Do it yourself!

4 I don't feel very comfortable going to the cinema by myself.

5 My ex-husband and I don't talk to each other any more.
My mother and sister don't understand one another at all.

1 We often use reflexive pronouns when the subject and object of a verb are the same person.
* We don't usually use reflexive pronouns with some verbs which may be reflexive in other languages, e.g. wash, shave, etc. NOT He got up, shaved himself, and ...
* enjoy is always used with a reflexive pronoun when not followed by another object, e.g. Enjoy your meal! BUT Did you enjoy yourself last night?

2 We can also use reflexive pronouns after most prepositions when the complement is the same as the subject.
* After prepositions of place we use object pronouns, not reflexive pronouns,
e.g. She put the bag next to her on the seat. NOT next to herself

3 We can use reflexive pronouns to emphasize the subject, e.g. We decorated the house ourselves. (= we did it, not professional decorators)

4 by + reflexive pronoun = alone, on your / her, etc. own.

5 We use each other or one another for reciprocal actions, i.e. A does the action to B, and B does the action to A.

it and there

1 It's 10 o'clock. It's 30 degrees today. It's five miles to the coast.

2 It was great to hear that you and Martina are getting married!
It used to be difficult to buy fresh pasta in the UK, but now it's everywhere.

3 There have been a lot of storms recently. There used to be a cinema in that street.

1 We use it + be to talk about time, temperature, and distance.

2 We also use it + be as a 'preparatory' subject before adjectives. It was great to hear from you. NOT To hear from you was great.

3 We use there + be + noun to say if people and things are present or exist (or not). You cannot use It... here. NOT It used to be a cinema in that street.
