The pronoun is a part of speech which points out objects and their quality without naming them
as nouns and adjectives do. Thus pronouns function as substitutes of nouns or adjectives and
have a very general relative meaning. For example:
/ have a daughter. She is five years
old. Her eyes are blue. She has a boyfriend. He is six. Both have a lot of
toys. They meet every day. They have some secrets.
Note that according to the British tradition pronouns are viewed as noun-substitutes only. For
example:
He asked for money and I gave him some. Some of his friends didn't give him
any. Do you like fish or meat? — Both. Both of them were happy to meet each other.
The same words used attributively, i.e.
instead of adjectives, are regarded as
determiners
in
British
grammar
and
as
adjectives
in
American
grammar:
I
gave
him some money. Some friends of mine didn 't lend me any money. Both articles are quite
informative.
