We can proceed with the following description about pronouns 

PERFORMER/SUBJECT                  PRONOUNS WHICH

 PRONOUNS                                   RECEIVE ACTION
                                                             

I                                                                 me

you                                                          you

he                                                             him

she                                                            her

it                                                                 it

we                                                             us

they                                                         them

who                                                        whom

PRONOUN CLUE 1:

Don't be confused by who and whom. As you can see in the preceding list, who is a subject/performer and whom is

a pronoun that receives action.

If: He painted the house.

Then: Who painted the house?

If: The phone call is for him.

Then: For whom is the phone call?

PRONOUN CLUE 2:

Don't be confused by more than one subject.

If: He won the election.

Then: Macon and he won the election.

Because it is incorrect to say:

Him won the election.

It is also incorrect to say:

Macon and him won the election

PRONOUN CLUE 3:

Don't be confused by more than one word receiving the action.

If: I gave the present to her.

Then: I gave the present to Tom and her.

Because it is incorrect to say:

I gave the present to she.

It is also incorrect to say:

I gave the present to Tom and she.

If: Sam bought her lunch.

Then: Sam bought Robert and her lunch.

Because it is incorrect to say:

Sam bought she lunch.

It is also incorrect to say:

Sam bought Robert and she lunch.

PRONOUN CLUE 4:

Don't be confused by a condensed thought.

If: Elmer runs more quickly than I do.

Then: Elmer runs more quickly than I.

Because it is incorrect to say:

Elmer runs more quickly than me do.

It is equally incorrect to say:

Elmer runs more quickly than me.

PRONOUN CLUE 5:

A sentence is reversible if it has a linking word that connects the subject to a word which means the same thing as

the subject.

If: Carl is the mayor.

Then: The mayor is Carl.

If: He is the mayor.

Then: The mayor is he.

Because it is incorrect to say

Him is the mayor.

It is also incorrect to say:

The mayor is him.

PRONOUN CLUE 6:

Certain pronounsmy, your, his, her, its, our, theirmay be used as descriptive words.

Example:

I like the red hat.

I like his hat.

Descriptive pronouns are never a problem in the above context. However, errors tend to be made in sentences such

as the following:

INCORRECT:I do not like him smoking.

CORRECT:I do not like his smoking.

INCORRECT:Of course I approve of you jogging.

CORRECT:Of course I approve of your jogging.

PRONOUN CLUE 7:

Words such as to, from, between, except, among are followed by pronouns that receive action 

For example:

1.Between you and me, I don't enjoy cooking.

2.The package is for her.

3.Please divide the workload among them.

4.Everyone, except us, is attending the meeting.

PRONOUN CLUE 8:

A pronoun must agree in number with the word to which it refers.

For example:

1.One of the men in the back of the room could not project his voice.

His refers to one. Both words are singular.

2.All of those women left their coats after the rally.

Their refers to all. Both words are plural.
