Grammar: ✨ Grammar F: 🧩 Parts of Speech - Basics (A1) - Lesson 7: Personal Pronouns (Subject: we, they)
Hello! So far, we've learned the subject pronouns I, you, he, she, and it.
Today, we will learn the last two subject pronouns: we and they. These pronouns help us talk about groups of people or things.
What are "We" and "They"?
We use we when you are talking about yourself AND one or more other people together.
My family and I live in a house. We are happy.
My friend and I like to play. We play football.
(You and your classmates) We are learning English.
We use they when you are talking about more than one other person, animal, or thing (but not including yourself).
The students are in the classroom. They are reading.
My parents are kind. They help me.
Look at the cats! They are playing.
The books are on the table. They are new.
Using "we" and "they" is very useful for talking about groups!
