Personal Pronouns
Personal pronouns are pronouns used as substitutes for proper or common nouns. All known human languages have personal pronouns.
first-person singular (I) first-person plural (we) second-person singular and plural (you) third-person singular male (he) third-person singular female (she) third-person singular inanimate (it) third-person plural (they)
In English, it is standard to use personal pronouns explicitly. That is to say, they should always be in the sentence, except for commands, where you can omit the subject, which is always 'you,' even when the context is already understood, or could easily be understood by reading the sentences that follow. For example, one does not normally use the word "he" to refer to somebody if the person reading or hearing the sentence does not know to whom one is referring.
n addition, personal pronouns must be in agreement with the correct gender and number of people or objects being described.
Using the word "it" in English to refer to a person, for example, is usually considered extremely derogatory. It is generally not accepted to use a singular version of a pronoun for a plural noun, and vice versa. In general, pronouns are used often, since too little of their usage can make a sentence very difficult to read.
