-- Pronoun
-- In English, most of the personal pronouns have distinct
-- case forms (nominative and accusative) which is why NPCase is used here.

-- Structure of a pronoun:
-- gf | form | ex
-- ---------------+---------------------+-------
-- s (NCase Nom) | Pers. pron. (subj.) | I
-- s (NCase Gen) | Poss. determiner | my
-- s NPAcc | Pers. pron. (obj.) | me
-- s NPNomPoss | Poss. pron. (subj.) | mine
-- sp Nom | Poss. pron. (subj.) | mine
-- sp Gen | Poss. pron. (obj.) | mine's
