[Remember : The word which is used in the place of noun is called pronoun. When all these pronouns tell us more about a noun (qualify a noun) they are called pronominal adjectives.]

अहम् and त्वम् are used for /with all the three genders, so they are known as multi-gender pronouns. But the rest of the pronouns (other than अहम् and त्वम्) given here are used according to the gender of the noun (name); For e.g.,

एषः बालकः (This child) (masculine)

एषा बालिका (This girl) (feminine)

एतत् पुस्तकम् (This book) (neuter)

(યાદ રાખો જે નામને સ્થાને પ્રયોજાય તેને “સર્વનામ’ કહેવામાં આવે છે, આ બધાં સર્વનામો જ્યારે કોઈ નામના અર્થમાં વધારો કરતાં હોય ત્યારે તે સાર્વનામિક વિશેષણો ગણાય છે.)

અહમ્ અને ત્વમ્ સર્વ લિંગોમાં (ત્રણેય લિંગમાં) સમાન રીતે વપરાય છે, તેથી તેને સર્વલિંગી વિશેષણ કહે છે પરંતુ અહીં આપેલાં મદન અને ત્વમ્ સિવાયનાં સર્વનામો લિંગ અનુસાર પ્રયોજાય છે; જેમ કે,

एषः बालकः (આ બાળક) પુંલ્લિંગ

एषा बालिका (આ કન્યા) સ્ત્રીલિંગ

एतत् पुस्तकम् (આ પુસ્તક) નપુંસકલિંગ
