Let's go through each sentence and identify the case of the pronoun (Subjective, Objective, or Possessive) based on its function in the sentence.

1. I have told them that they should practice more.

- "them" – This is the object of the verb "told."
→ Objective case
- "they" – This is the subject of the clause "they should practice more."
→ Subjective case

✔ So:
- them → ☑️ Objective
- they → ☑️ Subjective

> ✔ Answer:
> - them: Objective
> - they: Subjective

2. She has a very loud and clear voice.

- "She" – This is the subject of the sentence ("She has...").
→ Subjective case

✔ So:
- She → ☑️ Subjective

> ✔ Answer:
> - She: Subjective

3. The balloons are mine but the gifts are hers.

- "mine" – This means "my balloons" → shows ownership.
→ Possessive case
- "hers" – This means "her gifts" → also shows ownership.
→ Possessive case

✔ So:
- mine → ☑️ Possessive
- hers → ☑️ Possessive

> ✔ Answer:
> - mine: Possessive
> - hers: Possessive

4. Whom will you give the lovely roses to?

- "Whom" – This is the object of the verb "give."
Even though it's at the beginning of the sentence, it’s asking *to whom* the roses are given — so it's the recipient, which is an object.
→ Objective case

Note: "Whom" is the objective form of "who." In formal English, we use "whom" when it's the object.

✔ So:
- Whom → ☑️ Objective

> ✔ Answer:
> - Whom: Objective

5. This is our lovely tree. It is decorated by us.

- "our" – This shows possession: "our tree" → belongs to us.
→ Possessive case
- "us" – This is the object of the preposition "by" in the passive construction "decorated by us."
→ Objective case

✔ So:
- our → ☑️ Possessive
- us → ☑️ Objective

> ✔ Answer:
> - our: Possessive
> - us: Objective
