Both Him and His are pronouns for male people or living beings. His is a Possessive Pronoun. It indicates ownership or belonging. On the other hand, 'Him' is an objective case of pronoun. Him is at the receiving end and answers who is being acted upon. Example of His: This is his book. Example of Him: The book belongs to him. Example of usage of Him and His in the same sentence: The doctor called him to share his medical test reports.

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.

The subject, includes word or group of words that tell what or who the sentence is about. They can be noun or pronoun.

There are certain cases in which articles are generally omitted. In total, there are about ten such scenarios where we do not use any article in front of certain words. Some of these exceptions are as follows:

• When talking about abstract nouns (uncountable nouns) used in a generic sense
• Before plural nouns used in a general sense
• In front of most of the proper nouns, such as names, places, countries, continents, etc.
• Before the name of meals.

In a very basic sense, 'a' is used as a prefix to words that start with a consonant, while 'an' is used for vowels.

• Example: He lives only a mile away from the office.
• Example: An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind.

This rule also applies when a word starts with a consonant/ vowel sound, such as an hour, a university, etc. This stands true to acronyms as well, for example, a UFO, an HR department, etc.

In English grammar, articles are words ("a," "an," and "the") that are prefixes to nouns and are used to indicate whether the noun is specific or general. As these are used before speaking about the noun, articles can also be considered as adjectives to a certain degree. There are two types of articles; Definite and Indefinite.
