     What are object pronouns?


           
         An object pronoun, also called objective pronoun, functions as the object of a verb            or preposition, as distinguished from a subject or subjective pronoun, which is the                  subject of a verb.

         Examples:

  •  He begged her to live with him. (her is the object of the verb begged and him is the object of the preposition with)
  • She told them the truth. (them is the object of the verb told)

         Object pronouns are used instead of object nouns, usually because we already know            what the object is.

  • She's my friend. I really enjoy being with her.
  • I like this film. I saw it last week.

      Object Pronouns

       Object pronouns in English are the following:
       me, you, him, her, it, us, them

      Object pronouns come after either a verb (e.g "like") or a preposition (e.g "to").

     Examples:

  • I like you but you don't like me.
  • Do you really hate her?
  • She loves sitting next to him.
  • She always writes e-mails to us.
  • He's talking to her about it.
