Pronoun Antecedent Agreement
Pronoun antecedent agreement means that a pronoun (like he, she, it, they) must match the noun it refers to in number and gender. For example, if the noun is singular and female, the pronoun should be “she.” If the noun is plural, the pronoun should be “they” or “we,” depending on context. Ensuring agreement helps sentences be clear and easy to understand, avoiding confusion about who or what is being referenced. It is a fundamental rule in proper grammar that maintains clarity and coherence in writing and speech.
