 Emphatic Pronouns – Explanation & Examples (Rapidex English Speaking Course)

 What are Emphatic Pronouns?

Emphatic pronouns are used to emphasize the noun or pronoun in a sentence. These pronouns are the same as reflexive pronouns but serve a different purpose – they add emphasis rather than acting as an object.

(Myself, Yourself, Himself, Herself, Itself, Ourselves, Themselves)

 Examples of Emphatic Pronouns

  • I completed the project.

With Emphatic Pronoun (Emphasis Added):

  • I myself completed the project.

  • She herself cooked the dinner.

  • The teacher himself explained the concept.

  • They themselves built the house.
