Pronoun clarity
- A pronoun must clearly refer to one noun (its antecedent).
- Unclear: Ali told Sam he won. Clear: Ali told Sam that Ali won.
Determiners
- Quantifiers: some, any, much, many, several, all, both, each.
Key idea
Pronouns must refer clearly to their antecedent; determiners such as some, several and both quantify nouns.
Remember
Avoid pronouns that could refer to more than one noun.
