  2. The case of each pronoun tells how it is related to the other words used with it.

  3. There are three cases of pronouns: • Nominative Case • Objective Case • Possessive Case

  4. Nominative Case A nominative case pronoun can be the subject of a clause. The following are nominative forms: I, you, he, she, it we, they I like to fly when I travel on business. You must fly to enjoy the experience.

  5. Nominative Case A nominative pronoun is a predicate nominative if it follows a “be” verb (am, is, are, was, were, be, being, been) or another linking verb (appear, become, feel, and etc.) and renames the subject.

  6. Nominative Case “Oh, it’s only she who scared me just now, “ said Mama to Papa, glancing over her shoulder. “Yes, it is I,” said Mai in a superior tone.

  7. Possessive Case Possessive case pronouns show possession or ownership. Apostrophes, however, are not used with personal pronouns. But as I placed my hand upon his shoulder, there came a strong shudder over his whole person. --Edgar Allan Poe, “The Fall of the House of Usher”

  8. Objective Case An objective case pronoun can be a direct object, an indirect object, or an object of the preposition. The kids loved it! We lit a campfire for them and told them old ghost stories. (It is the direct object of the verb loved. Them is the object of the preposition for and the indirect object of the verb told.)

  9. Let's Practice On the following slide, identify each underlined pronoun as nominative, possessive, or objective.

  10. Mr. Lee, a neighbor, was taking out (1)his garbage. (2)He saw (3)me beginning to rake our yard and asked, “Do you need help, Carol?” Not one to turn down such an offer, (4)I accepted. The next thing I knew, he came from his garage with a new “toy.” (5)It was a noisy smelly leaf blower. “Have (6)you ever seen one of these things?” he asked. He demonstrated (7)its powerful wind, aiming (8)it at a pile of leaves I had just raked. “Well I’ve seen people use them,” I admitted, “but (9)we only have rakes at (10)our house. I guess we’re a little old fashioned that way.”
