PLZ HELP ME MEDAL+FAN FOR BEST RESPONSE. Which sentence uses its object pronoun correctly? A. Aunt Mildred gave the grandchildren and me her jewelry. B. Emily brought we to her clubhouse. C. Odessa saw Alec and he at the stadium. D. Nancy wrote she a very nice thank-you note.

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

which do you think?

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

C

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

Would you say Odessa saw he at the stadium? Or would you say Odessa saw him at the stadium?

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

him

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

correct so C is wrong

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

D would have been correct if they switched she and nancy

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

Yep...Let's look at A. Aunt Mildred gave me her jewelry...does that sound correct???

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

yes

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

So the answer is A?

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

Yep, so that is how you can check...when you have a compound object take one out and read the sentence. If it makes sense then you know you are correct..Watch..Aunt Mildred gave the grandchildren her jewelry. AND Aunt Mildred gave me her jewelry. See both are correct; therefore, together they are correct!! :) I hope this helps...
