Third persons, and the others?
|
Hi, I know you must be busy, but a student just asked me this and I couldn �t answer. I told her that I �d find out and give her the answer next class.
He, she and it are known as "third persons" and we have a "different" auxiliary in simple present (does /doesn �t) and the verb + s/es rule.
So the question is:
What is the name of the rest of the pronouns (I, you, we, they)?
I hope you can help me to give her an answer, since I hadn �t thought of this before.
Thank you so much.

Might seem obvious for many, but, never the less:
you : 2nd person singular and plural ;o))
- now you �ve got them all :o)
Have a nice lesson tomorrow!
