Pronoun
Pronoun is a word that is used in place of a noun or a noun phrase. Pronouns are usually used to refer to a noun that has already been introduced [1].
Pronouns are also used in place of a noun which does not have to be named [2].
Pronouns help us to make sentences shorter and make them sound less repetitious [3].
The categorical meaning of pronouns is indication or reference.
There are eight main classes of pronouns:
1. Personal
2. Demonstrative
3. Reflexive
4. Reciprocal
5. Possessive
6. Indefinite
7. Relative
8. Interrogative [Kirvalidze, 29].
Pronouns are a special class of nouns and adjectives that are divided into:
1. Nouns-pronouns (they)
2. Adjectives-pronouns (my, that)
