hey guys,

can someone explain what pronoun case is?

I know that there are 3 types, but what is the purpose of the pronoun case? what are we looking for? how does it help in answering the question?

thanks to all!

Prounn :

1. as a subject : Although he could not sleep last night, David completed the job.

2. as a ob object : As I promised David to give a treat, so tomorrow I will go to movie with him.

3. as possessive : As I promised David to give a treat, so tomorrow I will go to movie with his family.

hey buddy!

i know that....but what exactly is the concept behind a pronoun case.

are we simply looking for whether the pronoun is PROPERLY parallel to the sentence by making sure what its function is?

thanks

concept is which form will be used when

I have given very simple examples where the usage is quiet clear.

See some complex example here:

(i)
the presenters, one of who/whom is blind, will present tomorrow.

Here , of is a redeposition so should be followed by object form

Hence:
who is incorrect
whom is correct.

Another example :
(ii)
a gerund can be preceded by Possessive case not by object case

e.g. [ I remember from 1 sentence ]

his having .... [ correct ]
him having .... [ in correct ]

so to decide which form is to be used, we look for its function in the sentence and then pick the right form?

right?
