Funda- let’s do it Rahul E n g l i s h D h a b a Page 1 Class No. - 6 Date- 15th September 2013 Rahul Kunwar Dear Aspirants, Remember your intelligent effort leads you to success. Blind efforts & mere mechanical toil cannot deliver the goods. Our efforts & toil should be combined with the know-how or correct technique to produce the desired results. Intelligent effort, then, implies working to a plan with a definite objective. Smart work is better than hard work ….. But Smartness always follows industrious ….. To gain our goal or objective we must first have a strong urge or burning desire for it. Sooner or later the man who wins is the man who thinks & also firmly believes that he will win. Success is not merely a question of luck or genius. It depends on hard work, sustained toil & intelligent application on your part. Mark Twain “Begin with the determination to succeed & the work is half done already” To make your English leaning more interesting & easy I am going to introduce some distraction which will help you recharge your mind at regular interval it.....

Funda- let’s do it Rahul E n g l i s h D h a b a Page 2 Class No. - 6 Date- 15th September 2013 Rahul Kunwar Quick Review A pronoun is a word used in the place of a noun – the name of a person, place, thing or feeling - he, she, it, its, they, we, you etc Common errors with pronouns grammar Sentence Proble m How to work it out Option 1 Option 2 The dog was eating its/it’s food. its or it’s It’s means it is or it has, so replace it’s with it is or it has in the sentence and see which makes sense. The dog was eating its food. X The dog was eating it is food. Its/It’s snowing in the mountain. X Its snowing in the mountain. It is (for it’s) snowing in the mountain. The boy put on his/he’s jacket. his or he’s He’s means he is or he has so replace he’s with he is or he has in the sentence and see which makes sense. The boy put on his jacket. X The boy put on he is (for he’s) jacket. His/he’s my best friend. X. His my best friend. He is (for he’s) my best friend. Can James and I/me go to the park? I or me Leave out the other person and read it as if you are alone in the sentence. Can I go to the park? Can me go to the park? This present is from Anna and I/me. X. This present is from I. This present is from me. Personal Pronouns Personal pronouns are pronouns that refer to people or things. These pronouns can be further categorized into singular or plural; first, second, or third person; and subjective or objective case (i.e. functioning as the subject or an object in a sentence, respectively). There is a third case, possessive, that we will handle separately below. Person Singular Plural Case 1st I We Subjective Me Us Objective 2nd You You Subjective You You Objective 3rd He, she, it them Subjective Him, her, it them Objective

[First person, singular, subjective] The fight ends with me. [First person, singular, objective] We couldn’t discover the root of the issue. [First person, plural, subjective] Could you provide us with some privacy? [First person, plural, objective] You make me smile. [Second person, singular, subjective] Is Jimmy taking you? [Second person, singular, objective] You must pass the exam before employment can be considered. [Second person, plural, subjective] Samson, Inc is here to help you. [Second person, plural, objective] *Note that in the second person, ‘you’ is both singular and plural and used in both the subjective and objective case. She taught them to identify patterns in an unusual way. [Third person, singular, subjective] The ball would have hit him. [Third person, singular, objective] They were unsure of their conclusions. [Third person, plural, subjective] She taught them to identify patterns in an unusual way. [Third person, plural, objective] Possessive Pronouns The third pronoun case is possessive. Possessive pronouns function as adjectives that indicate ownership or relationship – Jones is my favorite person. They can be identified as first, second, or third person and singular or plural as well. Note: Do not use apostrophes with possessive pronouns. Person Singular Plural Absolute Adjective Absolute Pronoun Absolute Adjective Absolute Pronoun 1st My Mine Our Ours 2nd Your Your Yours 3rd His, his her Hers it Its their thiers Note: The forms that end in –s typically come after a verb.

Funda- let’s do it Rahul E n g l i s h D h a b a Page 4 Class No. - 6 Date- 15th September 2013 Rahul Kunwar Examples: We are leaving our lives in the hands of the rescue team. [First person, plural] The others’ opinions are irrelevant; the only one that matters is yours. [Second person, singular] Their conclusions overstepped the bounds of theirs research. [Third person, plural] I cannot find its case. [Third person, singular] Reflexive Pronouns As suggested by their title, these nouns reflect the reader’s attention back to the subject of the sentence – Sara completed the project by herself. Reflexive pronouns are used in two main situations: 1. When the subject and direct object is the same thing 2. When the subject and object of a preposition are the same. Person Singular Plural 1st Myself Ourselves 2nd Yourself Yourselves 3rd Himself ThemselvesHerself Itself Examples: Situation ONE: James shot himself in the foot. Situation TWO: I talk to myself quite relentlessly. You are more afraid of yourself than anyone else. Intensive Pronouns These have the same form as reflexive pronouns but are used to emphasize the subject– They themselves were unsure. We ourselves would have never considered it an option. I have climbed Everest three times myself. Note: A way to distinguish between reflexive and intensive pronouns is to remove the pronoun from the sentence – if the sentence still makes sense, the pronoun is intensive. Note: The forms Hisself, theirselves, and themself are not words in the English language.

ENGLISH DHABA© Pronoun ka
Funda- let’s do it Rahul E n g l i s h D h a b a Page 5 Class No. - 6 Date- 15th September 2013 Rahul Kunwar Demonstrative Pronouns Examples: Are those the shoes you wanted? (Points to a specific pair in a specific location away from the speaker.) Are these the shoes you wanted? (Points to a specific location near the speaker.) These ideas are what led to the fall. (Refers to previously identified ideas) Note: A naked this is a demonstrative pronoun that doesn’t clearly refer to something discussed. Consider the following: I couldn’t have been more wrong about the condition of my paper. This indicated how far I still needed to come as a writer. o Does the pronoun this refers to the writer’s being wrong or to the condition of the writer’s paper? The easiest way to fix a naked this is to include a noun that specifies what the pronoun is referring to: This misevaluation indicated how far I still needed to come as a writer. Indefinite Pronouns Indefinite pronouns are considered indefinite because they do not refer directly to a clearly specified noun. While they often suggest a number or amount (some, all, everyone, few), the measure is not specific. These pronouns can be tricky because some of them can be both singular and plural. Examples: Someone has to take out the trash. (singular) Neither of the participants was comfortable. (singular) Most of the audience responds to this type of persuasion. (plural) Each of the students identifies a few of his/her favorite hobbies. (singular; plural) Note: For the pronouns that can be both singular and plural, their number depends on the noun they refer to: More of the students leave early this semester. (plural) None of his cereal was finished. (singular) Note: with these pronouns, consider the placement. If the pronoun is included immediately before a noun (i.e. All dogs go to heaven.), then the pronoun acts as an adjective. The verb of the sentence must agree with the noun that is its subject (dogs). This, that, these, those Are used to point to a specific noun or nouns and indicate a position relative to the speaker.

Funda- let’s do it Rahul E n g l i s h D h a b a Page 8 Class No. - 6 Date- 15th September 2013 Rahul Kunwar Relative Pronoun Relative pronouns introduce describing clauses. They are categorized into Those used for people (who, whom, and whose) and People Pronouns Are o Either Subjective Or Objective And o Either Restrictive Or Non‐Restrictive Those used for things (which and that). Thing Pronouns Are o Either Restrictive or Non‐Restrictive. Examples:- I met Hari. Hari had just returned. o I met hari who had just returned. I have found the pen. I had lost the pen o I have found the pen which I had lost. Here is the book. You lent me the book. o Here is the book that you lent me. Funda:- 1. Rule of thumb for using whom is :- To ask whether it is followed by another pronoun— If there is a pronoun or noun after the ‘whom’, whom is probably the correct choice. The writer whom he disliked was presenting. Another way to determine if you need whom rather than who is:- To determine whether it comes after a preposition— As for whom she confided in, no one knew. 2. That is used for persons & things. It may refer to a singular or a plural noun That has no possessive case & it is never use with a preposition preceding. This is a boy that I told you of. I know the house that he lives in. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. All that I said had no effect on him. 3. That may be used as an adverbial accusative = on which, in which, at which; I remember the day that he came. On the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die Subjective Objective Possessive who whom whose whose Non‐Restrictive Restrictive which That which Note: Non‐restrictive means the phrase can be removed from the sentence without changing the sentence’s overall meaning. Relative Clauses * check out on internet. Note: Relative pronoun that is used only in defining clauses, i.e., clauses that restrict, limit, or define the antecedent.

As the Relative Pronoun that has a restrictive force it sometimes become unsuitable as the substitute for who or which. My father that is a schoolmaster is fifty years old. My father, who is a schoolmaster, is fifty years old. 5. But, if I happen to have more than one sister or brother etc, i can say- My sister has been adopted by my uncle is ill. That is used in preference to who or which- 6. After Adjective in the Superlative Degree The wisest man that ever lived made mistake 7.
