Subject and Object Pronouns Guide

This document provides an introduction to subject and object pronouns. It explains that subject pronouns come before verbs to replace nouns or names, such as "I", "you", "he", "she", etc. It also explains that object pronouns come after verbs or prepositions and replace the object of the sentence. Examples are provided to demonstrate the use of both subject and object pronouns. The document then discusses the indefinite and definite articles "a/an" and "the" and provides rules for using them correctly with singular and plural nouns. Finally, it briefly covers forming plurals of nouns by adding "-s" or changing the ending.
