Which option correctly identifies a first-person pronoun?

Which option correctly identifies a first-person pronoun?

• A. He or she.
• B. You.
• C. I, me, we, us.
• D. They.

Answer: (C)

First-person pronouns are used when the speaker is talking about themselves or a group that includes the speaker. They include I, me, we, and us, with I and we serving as the subject forms and me and us as the object forms. This is why the option listing I, me, we, us is the best choice. The other options refer to different persons: he or she is third person (someone else); you is second person (the listener); they is third person (others not including the speaker or listener).
