Hello welcome to this tutorial.

00:04.350 --> 00:09.590
Today we are going to talk about subject pronouns.

00:09.630 --> 00:10.760
Let's get started.

00:12.770 --> 00:24.510
Now a subject is the person or thing that performs the action in the sentence or clause and is subject

00:24.510 --> 00:34.420
pronoun is a pronoun that takes the place of a noun as the subject of a sentence.

00:34.480 --> 00:42.870
For example in the sentence we have she told me about her worries.

00:42.890 --> 00:52.450
Now the word she is a pronoun and it is the subject of the sentence.

00:52.460 --> 00:56.960
And so in the words she is a subject pronoun

01:00.720 --> 01:11.540
no that subject pronouns replace nouns that are the subject of their clause haven't look at the table

01:11.840 --> 01:12.380
below

01:15.060 --> 01:28.430
what we talk about the first person in its singular form we use I m plural we what we talk about the

01:28.430 --> 01:44.750
second person we use you and it's for the same you when we talk about the third person we use he she

01:45.500 --> 01:49.470
it's plural thein

01:53.230 --> 02:03.190
also we should replace the subject with a subject pronoun to avoid repetition for example Mary is a

02:03.190 --> 02:13.830
student and Mary is very hard hardworking the repetition of the proper noun Mary should be avoided we

02:13.850 --> 02:26.760
should say something like Mary is a student and she is very hardworking she refers to Mary also note

02:26.940 --> 02:40.800
that we used to subject pronoun it will be referred to objects things animals or ideas for example love

02:41.190 --> 02:51.440
is eternal it will last for ever the pronoun it refers to the word love

02:57.210 --> 03:10.020
and sometimes what we don't know the sex of a baby we can use it for example there baby is so small

03:10.680 --> 03:25.210
it only weighs two kilos we also use it when we talk about Thai whether or temperature for example what

03:25.390 --> 03:33.290
time is it it's seven o'clock it's quite cold today.
