00:00Hi friends! Today we are going to learn about noun and pronoun cases. So let's start.

00:10Nouns. We know noun is a naming word, and all naming words, that is, the names of persons,

00:20animals, birds, places, things, even feelings or ideas are called nouns. And all the words

00:28used in the place of nouns are called pronouns. Every noun or pronoun has a relation with

00:37other words in the sentence, and that relationship is called its case. Cases of nouns, pronouns.

00:49Nouns and pronouns perform different roles in the sentence. There are five cases in English.

00:58The nominative case, the objective case, the vocative case, the possessive case, the dative case.

01:09Let's first learn about the nominative case of nouns and pronouns. In this case, the noun or pronoun

01:19is used as a subject of the verb in the sentence. Nominative case answers a question of who or what

01:29to the verb. Let's learn with an example. He laughed loudly. Here, the pronoun is he, and verb is laughed.

01:45So, the pronoun he is answering the question, who laughed loudly? The answer to the question,

01:54who laughed, is he. So, here the case of the pronoun is nominative. Let's revise. When the noun or pronoun

02:06is answered to the question, who or what to the verb, then the case of the noun or the pronoun is

02:15nominative. Let's learn with examples. He bought a cap. The verb is bought. Who bought the cap?

02:27So, he is answered to the question, who bought? So, he is a nominative case of pronoun.

02:38Nominative case is also called subjective case. Ben was a dancer. We do not have a main verb here,

02:50but we have a helping verb, was. Now, who was a dancer? Ben was a dancer. So, Ben is an answer to the

03:02question, who was? So, Ben is a nominative or subjective case. Sun shines bright at noon.

03:15The verb is shines. What shines bright at noon? The sun. So, answer to the question, what shines,

03:26is the sun. So, sun is a nominative or subjective case of noun. Let's revise once again. When the noun

03:38or pronoun is answered to the question, who or what to the verb, then the case of the noun or the pronoun

03:47is nominative or subjective case. Here is one more example. Gems are precious. Now, we do not have a

04:00main verb here, but we have a helping verb, are. Now, what are precious? Gems are precious. So,

04:11gems is a nominative or subjective case of noun here. Now, let's learn another case of noun or pronoun.

04:21It's the objective or accusative case. A noun or pronoun is said to be in the objective case when it is

04:32used as the object of the verb. If you put what or whom after the verb in the sentence, you will get the

04:42objective or accusative case of noun or pronoun. We will learn it with the help of examples. He painted

04:53a picture. Here, he is the pronoun. Painted is the verb. Now, put who or what before the verb. Who painted

05:06a picture? He painted. He is the answer if we put who or what before the verb. So, he is the nominative

05:18case of the pronoun. Now, put whom or what after the verb. You will get the answer to objective or

05:27accusative case of the noun or pronoun. Now, he painted what? A picture is the answer. So, picture is the

05:40objective or accusative case of noun or pronoun. Here is another example. Mom cooked rice today. The verb is

05:51cooked. Put what or who before the verb to get the nominative case of noun or pronoun. Who cooked the rice?

06:04Mom cooked the rice. So, mom is the nominative or subjective case of noun. Now, mom cooked what? Mom

06:16cooked rice. So, rice is the objective or accusative case of noun or pronoun. Now, here we have another

06:27example. Sam painted the wall red. Now, the verb is painted. Put who or what before the verb and you will get

06:38the nominative or subjective case of noun or pronoun. Who painted the wall red? Sam painted the wall red.

06:49So, Sam is the nominative or subjective case of noun. Now, put who or whom after the verb. Sam painted what? Sam

07:03painted the wall. So, wall is the objective or accusative case of noun. Let's one more example. She threw a stone.

07:17Verb is through. Put what or who before the verb and you will get the nominative or subjective case of noun. Who

07:29threw a stone? So, she is a nominative or the subjective case of pronoun. Now, she threw what? A stone. So, stone is

07:43the objective or accusative case of pronoun. Let's see one more example. They are watching a movie. So, the verb is

07:55watching. Now, put who or what before watching. Who is watching a movie? They are watching. So, they is a

08:09nominative or subjective case of noun. Now, put whom or what after the verb and you will get the objective or

08:19accusative case of noun or pronoun. They are watching what? They are watching a movie. So, movie is the objective or

08:32accusative case of pronoun. So, kids, today we learned that nouns or pronouns have cases in English and that there are

08:42five cases in English and we have also learned the cases of nouns or pronouns. Now, we will learn about more cases in

08:52our next assignment. Now, you may go ahead and take a quiz to learn more. Bye-bye.
