What are the pronoun three cases?

Pronouns have three cases:

* Nominative Case: This case is used for the subject of a sentence or clause. It tells who or what performs the action. Examples:

* I am going to the store.

* He loves to read.

* We are going to the party.

* Objective Case: This case is used for the object of a verb or preposition. It tells who or what receives the action. Examples:

* The teacher gave me a good grade.

* He gave the book to her.

* We saw them at the park.

* Possessive Case: This case shows ownership or possession. Examples:

* That is my car.

* His dog is very friendly.

* This is our house.

Here is a table summarizing the pronoun cases:

| Case | Examples | Function |

|---|---|---|

| Nominative | I, you, he, she, it, we, they, who | Subject of a verb or clause |

| Objective | me, you, him, her, it, us, them, whom | Object of a verb or preposition |

| Possessive | my, your, his, her, its, our, their, whose | Shows ownership or possession |

It's important to note that some pronouns don't have all three cases. For example, "it" has the same form in the nominative and objective cases.
