Learn subject pronouns and possessive adjectives in English — he, she, it, his, her, its!…
You already know subject pronouns (I, you, he, she…). Today, we learn their partners: object pronouns, which we use in a different part of the sentence!
1
Subject vs. Object
Every subject pronoun has a matching object pronoun:
Subject
he
Object
him
All Forms
I → me, you → you, she → her, it → it, we → us, they → them
لكل ضمير فاعل ضمير مفعول به مطابق: I → me، you → you، he → him، she → her، it → it، we → us، they → them.

Where Do Object Pronouns Go?
Object pronouns go after the verb, as the person or thing receiving the action:
Example
She loves him.
Can you help me?
She loves him.
Can you help me?
💡 Easy Tip
The subject does the action, and the object receives it. In “She loves him,” she is the subject and him is the object!
The subject does the action, and the object receives it. In “She loves him,” she is the subject and him is the object!
ضمائر المفعول به تأتي بعد الفعل، كشخص أو شيء يستقبل الفعل. مثال: “She loves him” (هي تحب هو → إياه).
3
After Prepositions Too
We also use object pronouns after prepositions like “for,” “with,” and “to”:
Example
This gift is for her.
Come with us.
This gift is for her.
Come with us.
نستخدم ضمائر المفعول به أيضا بعد حروف الجر مثل “for” و”with” و”to”. مثال: “This gift is for her” (هذه الهدية لها).
