Introduction to Pronouns – Notes Part 1 Personal pronouns and demonstrative
pronouns for direct and indirect speech.
 Direct and Indirect Speech:

 Recounting someone's past words can be done using direct speech (verbatim) or indirect
speech (reported by someone else).

 Example: "Mom said that you can't have any more chocolate!" "Boitumelo said that she
likes you!"

 Understanding Pronouns:

 Pronouns are words that replace nouns to avoid repetition.

 Two types of conveying speech: direct speech and indirect speech.

 Pronouns' Importance:

 Without pronouns, sentences become repetitive and cumbersome.

 Pronouns take the place of nouns for clarity and efficiency.

 Example of non-pronoun usage: "Malusi arrived at the park to take Malusi's dog for a
walk..."

 Benefits of Pronouns:

 Pronouns simplify sentences by replacing nouns.

 Avoids redundancy and enhances readability.
