Class 10th

Both Reflexive Pronoun and Intensive Pronoun end with 'Self' or 'Selves' such as 'Myself', 'Himself', 'Herself', etc. Reflexive pronouns are the object or indirect object of the main verb. On the other hand, the Intensive Pronouns emphasise a noun or a pronoun. Such sentences do not add value to the sentence.

There are over 10 types of pronouns. The major pronoun types are as follows:

• Personal Pronoun
• Subject Pronoun
• Object Pronoun
• Relative Pronoun
• Reflexive Pronoun
• Intensive Pronoun
• Interrogative Pronoun
• Indefinite Pronoun
• Demonstrative Pronoun
• Possessive Pronoun.

Pronoun is one of the important aspects of English grammar. It is one of the eight traditional parts of speech. The significance of pronoun lies in the fact that it provides an alternate or substitute for nouns. This helps in breaking the monotony and avoiding repetition, hence bringing variation in reading or conversation.

Punctuations which are commonly put around Interjections include comma (, ), semicolon (;), and exclamation marks (!). Some of the other punctuations are hyphen (-) or full stop (.).

Interjections add value to a sentence and give a clarity of the mood of the speaker or narrator. While it may not have an impact on the meaning, it can emphasise the emotion or the sentiment. However, it must be noted that Interjections are mostly used during informal communication and should be avoided during formal communication. Even if it is a must to use Interjections in formal sentences, it should be restricted to a few generic words such as 'umm', 'uhh', 'erm', etc.

The Interjections can be divided into five broad types:

·       Primary Interjections

·       Secondary Interjections

·       Volitive Interjections

·       Emotive Interjections

The students are advised to follow the instructions given in the question paper. Attempting both the options will take away much of the time. They must read both questions carefully and attempt the question which they know the most. 

An interjection is one of the eight parts of speech, which are defined by one or a couple of words used to express the mood or emotion. Although the Interjection does not impact the meaning of the sentence as a whole but acts as an ornamentation in the sentence.
