The pronoun 'them' falls into which category?

  1. Indefinite Pronoun

  2. Relative Pronoun

  3. Interrogative Pronoun

  4. Personal Pronoun

The correct answer is: Personal Pronoun

The pronoun 'them' is categorized as a personal pronoun. Personal pronouns are used to refer to specific individuals or groups and can take various forms depending on number, gender, and case. In this case, 'them' serves as an objective case pronoun used to refer to a group of people previously mentioned or understood in the context. The other categories do not apply to 'them': Indefinite pronouns refer to non-specific persons or things (e.g., someone, anyone), while relative pronouns introduce relative clauses and link to nouns (e.g., who, which). Interrogative pronouns are used to ask questions (e.g., who, what). Thus, 'them' distinctly fits the definition of a personal pronoun.
