After management learned that Daesun and Stasia were involved in the scandal, the director fired them. What case of pronoun is used in the previous sentence? Possessive Objective Nominative

The correct answer is:

Objective

Explanation:

pronouns are words that are used in the place of a noun.

Pronouns can be broadly divided into three cases, which describes the relationship of the pronouns with the words they are used with. The three cases of pronouns are: objective, nominative and possessive.

1. The objective case; here, the pronoun is used as the direct or indeirect object or the object of preposition in the sentence, that is, the pronoun is what is being spoken about in the sentence. Pronouns used here are; us, it, me, you, him/her and them.

Example is the sentence used in this question; 'After management learned that Daesun and Stasia were involved in the scandal, the director fired them'.  The word 'them' is the objective pronoun, it indicates what is being spoken about (Daesun and Stasia).

2. The nominative case of pronoun occurs when pronouns are used as the subject of a sentence. Here, the pronouns used are; I, you, we/they, he/she, it.

for example; I am going to school.

'I' here is what the sentence is talking about, therefore, is the subject of the sentence.

3. The possessive case of a pronoun occurs when the pronoun is used to show ownership or possession of a thing. The pronouns used in this case are; my, mine, their(s), your(s), his/her(s), its, and our(s). example; Our house is the last on the street. The pronoun 'our' is used to show ownership of the house.
