What is a pronoun? 

A pronoun is used in the place of a specific noun mentioned earlier in a sentence so that you don’t have to keep saying/writing that particular noun repeatedly.

Example:

Michael is a good boy. He gets up early in the morning. (Here, you don’t have to mention ‘Michael’ again.)

Personal Pronouns

Personal pronouns are the pronouns that take the place of persons or things. Each of the personal pronouns shows us the person, gender, and number it replaces.

Eg:- I, you, he, she, it, we. they, me, him, her, us, and them are all personal pronouns.
