Subject Pronouns
Several years ago your teachers taught you about the subject of a sentence. They also taught you about verbs. We talk about the subject of a sentence performing the action of the sentence. That subject is the first part of understanding what a subject pronoun is. The second part is the word pronoun. In basic terms, a pronoun takes the place of a noun. So, instead of saying my brother we can change it to just say he. He is a pronoun replacing the noun brother. So let’s study the pronouns in Spanish: I Yo We Nosotros You (familiar) Tú You-all (familiar)* Vosotros He Él They (male or co-ed) Ellos She Ella They (all female) Ellas You (formal) Usted (Ud.) You-all (formal)* Ustedes (Uds.) * - The you-all (familiar) “vosotros” is mostly limited to Spain in its usage. In Latin America the pronoun ustedes is widely used for you-all whether it is formal or familiar. By the way, we recognize that you-all is not proper and formal English but it will be used throughout the course for the simplicity in distinguishing it from the singular you.
