• Rule 1
• A pronoun must agree
with its antecedent (the
word to which it refers, or
the word it represents).
• Ex: One must always use
proper agreement in his
or her essay.
• A person should care for
her body, mind, and
spirit.
• Do NOT use “their” for singular
pronouns:
• Anybody, each, either, everyone,
nobody, somebody, etc.
• Use VERB test:
• Singular VERB=singular pronoun
• YES: Anybody is welcome to his
food.
• NO: Anybody are welcome to their
food.
• YES: Nobody had his or her
homework.
• NO: Nobody had their
homework.
