Subject Pronouns

• The subject of your sentence is that person, place or thing that is doing the action. In "the boy ran," the noun "boy" would be the subject of the sentence. If you replace boy with the pronoun "he" then the sentence would read, "he ran." Other subject pronouns include she, we, they, I and it. Subject pronouns can also rename the subject, and follow "to be" verbs such as is, are, was, were, am, and will be. "It was he who called," is the same as, "He called."
