Compound Subject - Object Pronouns

In this practice, I have underlined the verb. You have to decide how the pronoun is being used based on where it is in relation to the verb and what kind of verb it is.

Compound Subject / Nominative Case

• Compound Subject - before the verb.

• Example: Tom and she design the sets.

• Compound Predicate Noun - after a linking verb (is, am, are, was, were / like an =)

• Example: The designers are Tom and she. (The designers = Tom and she; Tom and she = the designers.)

Compound Objective Case

• Compound Direct Object - after an action verb.

• Example: The artist drew Len and her.

• Compound Object of a Preposition - after a preposition (of, in, to, with, from, on, through, over, before, after ....)
