In these cases the pronoun is in the objective case where the rule would require the nominative. |

| | You could really feel how the earth was shaking. | | | Personal pronouns do not simply change their reference in these limited contexts, they also convey some additonal meanings which have to do with the personal or social relation between the speaker and the hearer or between the speaker and the individual(s) he refers to. | | | Personal pronouns are commonly viewed as having a very clear-cut and unambiguous reference. |

| | Personal pronouns - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In some languages, a personal pronoun has a form called a disjunctive pronoun, which is used when it stands on its own, or with only a copula, such as in answering to the question "Who wrote this page?" English pronouns used in this way have caused some dispute. | | | Reflexive pronouns are used as the object of a sentence when the subject and object match. | | | For example, Tok Pisin has seven first-person pronouns according to number (singular, dual, trial, plural) and inclusiveness/exclusiveness, such as mitripela (they two and I) and yumitripela (you two and I). |
