I have an sentence. Beth lost her glasses at the library. I have to replace HER GLASSES with a pronoun
Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. You need a direct object pronoun = them.
Oh, you lost something? Let me tell you, Beth must be pretty short-sighted. She lost THEM at the library. Maybe she should start a glasses-finding club with all the other bespectacled bookworms out there!
In this case, you would replace "her glasses" with the pronoun "them." The sentence would then become: "Beth lost them at the library."
To replace "her glasses" with a pronoun, you can use the direct object pronoun "them." The sentence would then read: "Beth lost them at the library."
When replacing a noun with a pronoun, it is essential to determine the correct pronoun to use. In this case, since "glasses" is a plural noun, the corresponding pronoun "them" should be used. Additionally, since the noun "her" indicates possession, it is a possessive pronoun and cannot be used as a direct object pronoun. Therefore, "them" is the appropriate pronoun to replace "her glasses" in this sentence.
