The boxed words are a compound subject.

In a sentence talking about people, the people are subjects of that sentence. Subjects are basically what is being talked about.

Because there are two people being talked about, Bob and Al, the subjects are counted as one, or compounded. This just means that you read the sentence as [Bob and Al] instead of [Bob] and Al.

Compound verbs follow the same concept, but for action words. For example, “to sing and to dance”. However, in this case since the boxed words are subjects, they are a compound subject.

I guess it depends. I think it's false, because that seems too long for a sentence.

Determine the class of the italicized pronoun. Any of us could be the winner. personal relative interrogative demonstrative inde

zhannawk [14.2K]

In the sentence "Any of us could be the winner", there is two pronouns which are any and us.

The word "us" is a personal pronoun, more precisely a personal objective one. Personal pronouns are used to replace a noun within the sentence or clause. They can be either subjective when the subject of a sentence is the person or thing that fulfills the action (I, he, she, it, they, we, and you) or objective when they indicate the recipient of an action or motion and when they come after verbs and prepositions (me, her, him, it, you, them, and us).

On the other hand, the word "any" in this sentence acts as an indefinite pronoun since it does not refer to any specific person, thing or amount. It is vague and "not definite". Moreover, such word can also act as a determiner when used before nouns:

"I dont have any sugar."
