Question

Write two sentences containing pronouns with noun appositives. Use a nominative case pronoun in one sentence and an objective case pronoun in the other.

Answer 1

Answer:

1. He, the leader of the group, was not happy with the decision.

2. The man, Mr. Smith, wanted his food now.

Explanation:

A noun appositive is the use or presence of a modifier next to a noun which has the same objective of describing the noun in the sentence. These appositives rename, in a way, the noun of the sentence, but without removing or replacing it.

A nominative case pronoun is a use of the pronoun in the sentence as the subject in a sentence while an objective case pronoun uses the pronoun as the object in the sentence.

Two sentences with noun appositives, one using a pronoun in the nominative case and the second using the pronoun in the objective case are-

1. He, the leader of the group, was not happy with the decision.

In this case, the pronoun "he" is in the nominative case while also having the noun appositive "the leader of the group".

2. The man, Mr. Smith, wanted his food now.

In this sentence, Mr. Smith is the noun appositive while the pronoun "his" is in the objective case.
