How is the underlined pronoun in the sentence used? The cat jumped on the couch and sat between us. A. possessive B. direct object C. object of a preposition D. subject

OpenStudy (neonumbrella5115):

Well, the underlined pronoun is us, I presume? What do you think the answer is?

OpenStudy (inowalst):

^What do you think? @bohotness

OpenStudy (bohotness):

I think d or b

OpenStudy (bohotness):

@EclipsedStar

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

Actually, B or D are incorrect...

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

I'm guessing the underlined pronoun is "us"?

OpenStudy (inowalst):

As @EclipsedStar mentioned, B and D are wrong. Choose between A and C.

OpenStudy (bohotness):

I would go with a but I not sure

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

A is correct. :)

OpenStudy (inowalst):

A is incorrect.

OpenStudy (inowalst):

:/

OpenStudy (inowalst):

You sure?

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

The cat is being "possesive" of the couch :)

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

Also, the underlined word is "us", which clarifies that. :)

OpenStudy (inowalst):

Ah alright. Sorry.

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

Np! :D

OpenStudy (inowalst):

Just got a little confused.

OpenStudy (bohotness):

can you both help me with a few more?

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

Sure! New post, although you know that :P

OpenStudy (inowalst):

Of course!
