The objective case pronouns are me, us, you, him, her, it, them.

Example sentences:

Grandma loves little Jack and Jill.

She feeds them. (direct object)

She bakes them cookies. (indirect object> grandma doesn't bake the children, she bakes the cookies for them.)

A subject pronoun functions as the subject of a sentence or a clause.

  • the subject pronouns are: I, we, he, she, they, and who.
An object pronoun functions as the object of a verb or a preposition.
  • the object pronouns are: me, us, him, her, them, and whom.
The pronouns 'you' and 'it' function as both subject and object pronouns.

Examples:

  • Jack is my brother. He attends state college. (the pronoun 'he' takes the place of the noun 'Jack' as the subject of the second sentence)
  • Mother made the cake. I'll tell her that you liked it. (the pronoun 'her' takes the place of the noun 'mother' as the direct object of the verb 'tell')
  • My neighbor who has a garden gave me the tomatoes. (the pronoun 'who' takes the place of the noun 'neighbor' as the subject of the relative clause)
  • Some of the people to whom we sent invitationshave already responded. (the pronoun 'whom' takes the place of the noun 'people' as the object of the preposition 'to')
  • You are invited to the picnic. I can give you directions to the park. (the pronoun 'you' is the subject of the first sentence; the pronoun 'you' is the indirect object of the verb 'give' in the second sentence)

When a pronoun changes from a subject to an object, it changes its function.

Some pronouns change their form when functioning as a subject or an object. The pronouns that change form from subject to object are:

  • I - me
  • he - him
  • she - her
  • we - us
  • they - them
  • who - whom

All other pronouns are the same as a subject or an object in a sentence.
