PRONOMES I
Pronomes são palavras usadas para substituir o uso de um nome ou
referir/criar uma relação do nome que acompanha com outro,
frequentemente pela razão do nome ao qual ele se refere já ter sido
mencionado anteriormente.
Os pronomes substantivos substituirão nomes a fim de evitar a repetição,
por exemplo:
“Bill Gates is the founder of Microsoft. Bill Gates is very rich and Bill
Gates is married to Melinda Gates. Bill and Melinda Gates donate a lot
of money to charity.”
She – 3a pessoa do singular: Ela – só pode ser usado para quando for
possível determinar o sexo feminino. Outro importante uso é para
fenômenos naturais, embarcações e aeronaves
It – 3a pessoa do singular: É usado para quando não podemos
determinar o sexo do elemento ao qual nos referimos.
We – 1a pessoa do plural: Nós
You – 2a pessoa do plural: Vós ou Vocês
They – 3a pessoa do plural: Eles ou Elas – Equivale ao plural de “He”,
“She” ou “It”.
BIZU: Sujeito Impessoal:
Em inglês, NÃO HÁ oração sem sujeito. O sujeito é obrigatório.
Veja:
Em português, dizemos: “Está chovendo!” Como bem o sabemos, todo
fenômeno da natureza constitui uma oração sem sujeito em nosso
idioma. Contudo tal situação não é possível em inglês. Em inglês
dizemos:

It is raining!
No trecho acima, encontramos uma excessiva repetição dos nomes de
Bill Gates e sua esposa Melinda Gates. Com o uso dos pronomes
Vejam o “It” é o sujeito da oração. Ele não terá tradução para o português!
substantivos podemos evitar tal repetição e aumentar a fluidez do
discurso.
OBJECT PRONOUNS:
Os “Object Pronouns” equivalem aos nossos pronomes pessoais do caso
“Bill Gates is the founder of Microsoft. He is very rich and he is married
oblíquo. Geralmente, aparecem após os verbos e após as preposições.
to Melinda Gates. They donate a lot of money to charity.”

Take a look!!
BIZU: Note que a repetição de pronomes em “He is very rich and he is
Are you talking to ME? (to = preposition)
married to Melinda Gates” é tolerada na norma culta da língua, haja vista
Do you love HER? (love = verb)
a simplicidade da conjugação verbal no inglês e a consequente ausência
de uma desinência verbal rica como no português.
POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES
Ex: I have a dog. My dog is beautiful and big.
Os pronomes Adjetivos irão acompanhar um nome (substantivo), criando
uma relação deste nome com outro nome mencionado anteriormente ou
BIZU II: “Your” refere-se à pessoa com quem se fala.
subentendido no contexto.

BIZU III: “His”, “Her” ou “Its” referem-se à pessoa de quem se fala.

t pron. pron. adj. pron. pron. Ex:

Sing. I me My mine Myself

Em inglês temos a expressão formada por:
She her Her hers herself ON + Possessive Adjective + OWN = ALONE
Ex.
It it its its itself
I live on my own. = I live alone. ( Eu moro sozinho)
Plu. We us our ours ourselves She studies on her own. = She studies alone. (Ela estuda sozinha/por
conta própria)
You you your yours yourselves
REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS:
