Identify the Part of Speech of the underlined word :
'The tribe wanted someone to lead them ...'
Answer: A
The underlined word 'them' is a pronoun.
In 'The tribe wanted someone to lead them', 'them' stands in for 'the tribe', which has already been named, and is the object of 'lead'. A word that replaces a noun is a pronoun, and 'them' is the objective case of 'they'.
It is not a noun because it names nothing itself, not an adjective because it does not describe a noun, and not a preposition because it does not show a relation between words.
