I told John he would be the antecedent to the pronoun in this sentence. "he" refers to someone, the antecedent "John."
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But what makes John the antecedent? @douglaswinslowcooper
OpenStudy (anonymous):
"ante" means "before" and "cedent" means "coming." "John" has to come before "he," so that the reader knows whom "he" refers to.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh okay! Thank you so much, it makes a lot more sense now.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I am delighted to learn that! Well done.
