Subjective pronoun

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The subjective pronouns are personal pronouns used as the subject of a sentence; in other words, the initiator or instigator of a verb. Subjective pronouns are usually in the nominative case for languages with a nominative-accusative alignment pattern.

The English language subjective pronouns are I, you, he, she, it, we, what, who, and they. With the exception of you, it, and what, and in informal speech who, the objective pronouns are different i.e. me, him, her, us, whom and them. (c.f.)
