first, second or third person - ESL worksheet by coelho2005 - Free Printable

I'll solve this "Point of View: Clue Words" worksheet by categorizing each pronoun into its correct grammatical person (First, Second, or Third Person).

Let me first look closely at the image to understand the task and identify all the clue words.

First, look closely:
The worksheet has a title "Point of View: Clue Words" with directions to write each clue word in the box where it belongs. There are three boxes labeled:
- FIRST PERSON
- SECOND PERSON
- THIRD PERSON

Above these boxes, there is a list of pronouns that need to be categorized:
he, I, me, she, my, herself, hers, them, you, their, we, himself, him, they, us

I need to classify each of these pronouns according to grammatical person.

Next, find information:
I don't need to use any external tools for this as this is a standard grammar classification task. I can rely on my knowledge of English grammar to categorize these pronouns.

Then, review the findings:
Let me recall the definitions:
- First person refers to the speaker or writer (I, me, my, mine, we, us, our, ours)
- Second person refers to the person being addressed (you, your, yours)
- Third person refers to the person or thing being spoken about (he, him, his, she, her, it, they, them, their, theirs)

Now I'll categorize each word:

First Person:
- I
- me
- my
- we
- us

Second Person:
- you

Third Person:
- he
- she
- herself
- hers
- them
- their
- himself
- him
- they

Wait, let me double-check this categorization to make sure I haven't missed anything.

Actually, let me reconsider "herself" and "himself". These are reflexive pronouns, but they still refer to third person subjects (she/him). Similarly, "hers" is a possessive pronoun for third person.

Let me finalize the categorization:

First Person: I, me, my, we, us
Second Person: you
Third Person: he, she, himself, herself, him, her, them, they, their, hers

Looking back at the original list, I see "hers" is included, which is third person, and "their" is also third person.

The complete categorization should be:

First Person: I, me, my, we, us
Second Person: you
Third Person: he, she, himself, herself, him, them, they, their, hers

I notice "hers" is listed but not "her" - "hers" is the possessive form of "her", so it's still third person.

Let me now provide the final answer.

The solution to this worksheet is:

FIRST PERSON:
I, me, my, we, us

SECOND PERSON:
you

THIRD PERSON:
he, she, himself, herself, him, them, they, their, hers

This categorization follows standard English grammar rules for grammatical person. First person includes pronouns referring to the speaker/writer, second person refers to the person being addressed, and third person refers to others being spoken about.
