代詞是代替名詞的詞, 按其意義、特征及其在句中的作用分為：人稱代詞、物主代詞、指示代詞、反身代詞、相互代詞、疑問代詞、不定代詞和關系代詞等。
1)人稱代詞的人稱、數和格，如下表所示。
單數：
主格：I/you/he/she/it
賓格：me/you/him/her/it
復數：
主格：we/you/they
賓格：us/you/them
2)人稱代詞有主格和賓格之分。通常主格作主語，賓格作賓語。如：
i like table tennis. (作主語)
do you know him?(作賓語)
3)人稱代詞還可作表語。作表語時用賓格。如：
---whos is knocking at the door?
---it’s me.
4)人稱代詞在than之后與其他人或事物進行比較時，用主格和賓格都可以。如：
he is older than me.
he is older than i am.
2 物主代詞
1)表示所有關系的代詞叫物主代詞。物主代詞分形容詞性物主代詞和名詞性。
形容詞性物主代詞：my/your/his/her/its/our/your/their
名詞性物主代詞：mine/yours/his/hers/its/ours/yours/theirs
2)形容詞性物主代詞的作用相當于形容詞，可在句中作定語。例如：
our teacher is coming to see us.
this is her pencil-box.
3)名詞性物主代詞的作用相當于名詞，在句中可用作主語、賓語和表語。
our school is here, and theirs is there.(作主語)
--- is this english-book yours? (作表語)
--- no. mine is in my bag.
i've already finished my homework. have you finished yours? (作賓語)
3 指示代詞
指示代詞包括：this，that，these，those。
1) this和these一般用來指在時間或空間上較近的事物或人，that和those
則指時間和空間上較遠的事物或人，例如：
this is a pen and that is a pencil.
we are busy these days.
in those days the workers had a hard time.
2)有時that和those指前面講到過的事物，this 和these則是指下面將要講到的事物，例如：
i had a cold. that's why i didn't come.
what i want to say is this ; pronunciation is very important in learning english.
3)有時為了避免重復提到的名詞，�？捎胻hat或those代替，例如：
television sets made in beijing are just as good as those made in shanghai.
4)this 在電話用語中代表自己，that 則代表對方。例如：
hello! this is mary. is that jack speaking?
4 反身代詞
英語中用來表示"我自己"，"你自己"，"他自己"，"我們自己"，"你們自己"
等意義的代詞稱為反身代詞，也有人稱之為自身代名詞。
第一人稱單數：myself 復數：ourselves
第二人稱單數：yourself 復數：yourselves
第三人稱單數：himself/herself/itself 復數：themselves
反身代詞可以在句中作賓語，表語，同位語。
1)作賓語，表示動作的承受者就是動作的發(fā)出者，主語和賓語指同一個人
或一些人。
he called himself a writer.
would you please express yourself in english?
2)作表語。
it doesn't matter.i'll be myself soon.

3)作主語或賓語的同位語，表示親自或本人。
i myself washed the clothes.(=i washed the clothes myself.)(作主語同位語)
you should ask the teacher himself.(作賓語同位語)
不定代詞
不是指明代替任何特定名詞的代詞叫做不定代詞，在句中可作主語、表語、賓語和定語�，F將幾個常用的不定代詞舉例說明如下：
1 some與any的區(qū)別
1.some多用于肯定句，表示“一些，幾個”作形容詞時，后面可以接①不可數名詞+單數動詞;②可數名詞+復數動詞。

①用作形容詞：
