what do you need help on
Choose the correct pronoun in parentheses and use it in the sentence below. Then, find the pronoun's antecedent and type it in the box next to "antecedent." If your mother doesn't want the dog, give _________ to the animal shelter. (her, it) Antecedent: _________
Omg you go to k12 i do to
her
antecedent is her
I never heard an animal being called a he/her before :P. That would be weird.
they do when you dont know the name of it
i mean her/him/he
/her
but in this case is her
If your mother doesn't want the dog, give IT to the animal shelter. If your mother doesn't want the dog, give HER to the animal shelter.
I'm going for IT
1 sec let me show you something
Ok
This is a tricky one! Dogs are male/female and sometimes they refer animals to he or she.
her
www.slideshare.net/yzahmarasigan/english-grammar-in-progress look at this and let me look at 1 more thing
Okay @ShootingStar28 Since they don't disclose the gender, or the name of the dog. What do you think the answer is?
It..?
Antecedent would be her?
look
what do u think
its a gender what is a gender is a gender it or her
www.slideshare.net/yzahmarasigan/english-grammar-in-progress
Do you know what an Antecedent is?
yes
No..
yes
a thing or event that existed before or logically precedes another. or preceding in time or order; previous or preexisting.
that should help
Hmm? I thought an antecedent is when when a noun or another pronoun refers to another pronoun or noun.
thats not what i learned but that true to
It's more a clearer definition, it means the same thing tbh. @shootingstar28 So now you know the definition. Any ideas?
its her because we dont know the gender
but keep going @Zeronknight
We don't know the gender. So we can't really tell if the dog is a he or a she. @ShootingStar28 Assuming you know the answer?
Well I know that the singular noun is (it)
What do you think the answer is? Remember an antecedent is when when a noun or another pronoun refers to another pronoun or noun.
ok but if you dont know a gender you go for her/she/he/him
It's different for animals in a way. We don't know the gender of the dog, or the name.
That not what i learned
@ShootingStar28 what unit and what lesson is this
We don't know the dog's gender, would you want to call a dog a she, even though it may not be a she? @ShootingStar28 Please do not give out your unit and lesson.
This is not from my school, it's for my silbings Homework..
ok if it was k12 it would explain it
shooting is your silbings work online
if it is jest go with it because i guess they learned other things then me
Okay so we don't know the gender of the dog. The Dog can be any gender but we don't know. So What is your answer again Star?
IT is what I think the answer is...
Okay, i agree with your answer ^_^
It should be 'it' because if you say her it sounds like you are sending the mother to the shelter :/
Yes it is correct, we don't know the gender, so it could be male, or female! Good job! \(\huge\cal\color{lime}{Tha}\color{red}{nk~}\color{magenta}{Y}\color{cornflowerblue}{ou~}\color{gold}{For~}\color{darkgreen}{Us}\color{purple}{ing~ }\color{blue}{Open}\color{lightgreen}{Study!}\)
