sentences:  The personal pronouns retain a difference between subjective and objective case in most persons ("I/me, he/him, she/her, we/us, they/them") as well as a gender and animateness distinction in the third person singular (distinguishing "he/she/it").The subjective case corresponds to the Old English nominative case, and the objective case is used both in the sense of the previous accusative case (in the role of patient, or direct object of a transitive verb), and in the sense of the Old English dative case (in the role of a recipient or indirect object of a transitive verb).Subjective case is used when the pronoun is the subject of a finite clause, and otherwise, the objective case is used.
