In linguistics, a subject pronoun is a personal pronoun that is used as the subject of a verb.〔Peter Matthews, ''The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Linguistics'' (Oxford University Press, 1997), p. 359.〕 Subject pronouns are usually in the nominative case for languages with a nominative–accusative alignment pattern. In English the subject pronouns are ''I'', ''you'', ''he'', ''she'', ''it'', ''we'', ''they'', ''what'', and ''who''. With the exception of ''you'', ''it'', and ''what'', and in informal speech ''who'',〔Randolph Quirk, Sidney Greenbaum, Geoffrey Leech, and Jan Svartvik, ''A Comprehensive Grammar of the English Language'' (London: Longman, 1985), pp. 367 and 370.〕 the object pronouns are different: i.e. ''me'', ''him'', ''her'', ''us'', ''them'' and ''whom'' (see English personal pronouns). In some cases, the subject pronoun is not used for the logical subject. For example, Exceptional Case Marking (ECM) constructions involve the subject of a non-finite clause which appears in the object form (e.g., ''I want him to go''.) In colloquial speech, a coordinated first person subject will often appear in the object form even in subject position (e.g., ''James and me went to the store''.) This is corrected so often that it has led to cases of hypercorrection, where the subject pronoun is used even in object position under coordination (e.g., ''Marie gave Susana and I a piece of cake''.) ==See also== * Disjunctive pronoun * Object pronoun * Subject complement * Subject (grammar) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Subject pronoun」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
