Question

For each of the following sentences, determine whether or not the pronouns were used correctly. If all of the pronouns in the sentence are used correctly, write "correct" and identify the case of each pronoun (list the pronoun, then its case). If the pronouns are used incorrectly, then rewrite the sentence correctly and post it.


1. She laid her book down on the table.

2. Who's car is he driving today?

3. You shouldn't have said that about him.

4. To whom do I give this?

5. Their not going to understand.

6. To who do we give thanks for these fish?

7. You will give them the gifts.

8. That blue car belongs to he.

9. The only doctor in this town is me.
10. She and him both were hoping for a break.

Answer 1

1 she put her book on the table
2 who’s car is he driving ?
3 you should not have said that about him
4To who do I give this to

Answer 2

I’ll just correct the wrong ones.
2- Whose instead of Who’s. Who’s = Who is
5- They’re instead of Their. Their is only used with possession, like if you are saying, “Their car wash business,” or something similar.
6- To whom instead of To who, and I think it should be this instead of these.
8- him instead of he.
10- this is the most versatile. Either you can put “she and he” (which I wouldn’t), or you could put “her and him”, or you could just simply put “they”.
