Personal pronouns

Personal pronouns

Een persoonlijk voornaamwoord (personal pronoun) verwijst naar iets of iemand zonder ze bij naam te noemen.​

Vaak is dit persoonlijk voornaamwoord het onderwerp van de zin.​

“Boaz is new in this class. He seems nice.” ​

In de tweede zin gebruik je dus "he" in plaats van "Boaz".​

jij​
