Basic English Grammar: Pronouns - SHE, HER, HE, HIS

哈囉，你好嗎？我非常非常好，謝謝你！

Hello. How are you? I'm very, very well. Thank you. My name is Ronnie. I'm going to teach

我是Ronnie，我將要教你一些如果你已經學習英文或文法一段時間後

you something very easy but a little bit confusing and difficult even if you have studied English

or grammar for a while. I hear people make this mistake every day. Again, so this is

非常簡單但總是會有一點混淆和困難的東西 我常常每天聽到人們犯這樣的錯。

讓我們回來課堂上，我們將要這麼做：當你需要使用「she」、「he」或是「his」

what we're doing: when you should use "she" or "he" or "his" -- sorry -- "her" or "his".

……抱歉，是「her」或是「his」

These are two words that a lot of people get confused.

這兩種單字常常會讓大家混淆

First of all, the thing -- or a mistake that a lot of people make is "she" and "he" -- which

首先，很多人會困擾「she」和「he」，到底哪一個才是女生？哪一個才是男生？

one's the girl? Which one's the boy? Most of you know that "she" is the girl, but when

大多數的人都知道「she」是女生，但當你在說話的時候

you speak, you mix it up, and you say, "My mom went to the store. He bought -- " what?

你會不小心混合使用，你會說成「我媽媽去商店了，他買了……」等等？

He what? Your mom is a "he" now? What happened on the way to the store? Did something happen

他？你媽媽現在是男生了？她在去商店的路上發生了什麼事？發生了什麼事情讓你媽媽變成了男生？

to your mom that changed it into a "he"? So be careful. "She" is a girl; "he" is a boy.

所以要小心，「she」是女生；「he」是男生！

Now, this is the trick. You will remember this forever if you get this. "She" or "he"

現在有一個秘訣，當你學到的時候，你將會永遠記得它

「she」或是「he」後面都會加上一個動詞，這樣可以嗎？「主詞(she或是he) + 動詞」

going to be followed by a verb, okay? So subject + verb. "She" or "he". So "she likes", "he

像是「她喜歡」「他討厭」

hates", and then, if you want to, you're going to write a noun, or you're going to say a

如果你想，你要在後面加上一個名詞，你要說出一個名詞。

noun. For example, "She likes chickens." "He hates apricots. He doesn't like them at all."

舉例來說，「她喜歡雞」

「他討厭杏子，他一點都不喜歡它們」

So when you use "she" or "he", it's always going to be followed by a verb.

所以當你使用「she」或是「he」，都會接著一個動詞

(登登登登)

When we use "her" or "his", it's going to be followed by a noun because it is a possessive

當我們使用「her」或是「his」，我們會再後面接上一個名詞因為它是所有代名詞(possessive pronoun)。

pronoun. So I can say, "her dog" because "dog" is a noun. Or I can say "his chicken". Then,

所以我可以說「他的狗」，因為狗是名詞 或是我可以說「他的雞」

然後在很多時候，我會使用動詞。 舉個例子來說，「他的狗很可愛」或是「他的雞…」

usually, I would use a verb. For example, "Her dog is cute", or "his chicken -- let's

say we put an S -- his chickens are -- these are your verbs. Uh-oh -- sexy!" Sexy chicken

讓我們把雞變成複數名詞(chickens)，「他的雞很……」 這是你的動詞(are)

哦哦，性感 現在是性感雞時間！(學雞叫)

time! So if you need to remember, "Oh, my God. Do

所以當你需要記住「喔我的天啊，我要說”her”或”his”或”she還是”he”?」

I say -- do I say 'her' or 'his' or 'she' or 'he'?" Just remember: "she" or "he" plus

你只要記住，「she」跟「he」要加上動詞──任何你想要的動詞，「her」跟「his」加上名詞

the verb -- any verb you want, and "her" or "his" plus a noun. If you can remember these

如果你可以記住這兩個簡單的英文文法 你會大喊「哈利路亞，Ronnie。你拯救了我！」
