Let Us Know

A king went to a forest on a horse. He stopped under a tree to rest and tied his horse there. A loin from a distance saw him and he also saw it. He took his horse and fled away.
In above story the coloured words are used instead of nouns King and lion. These words are called pronouns. Pronouns are used in the place of a noun. When we have to repeat a noun we should use a pronoun instead of the noun.

Try this

	A boy has a dog. He takes it to a walk. A man gives him an ice cream. His dog wanted the ice cream.
	A girl has a pen. She wants a paper. A boy gives her the paper. Her drawing was nice.
	There was a building. It was very tall. Workers built it strongly. People live in their stories.

Now we are going to learn new pronoun that is reflexive pronoun.

Riya pinches Mari.	Riya pinches herself.
The dog bites Vino.	The dog bites itself.
The boy sees the girl.	The boy sees himself.

In the above example the coloured word denotes reflexive pronoun. A reflexive pronoun is used when something does something to itself.
