What this printable helps you do
Check whether readers can identify what a pronoun refers to. Work on a short passage before applying a change throughout a draft. Keep the audience and purpose in mind, and compare the original with the revision side by side. A change is useful when it makes meaning clearer or better supports the intended effect. Keep wording that already works rather than changing it simply to make the page look revised.
What is on the page
The page uses a spacious four-column log with room for repeated entries and a follow-up area below. Keep one observation or item on each row so information stays connected across the columns. The four headings are Sentence reference, Pronoun, Intended noun, Clearer wording. Add a subject identifier and date at the top so the page can be understood when you return to it.
How to use it
Read one sentence with the preceding sentence and locate the intended noun. Start with one example rather than filling the whole page at once. Use ordinary language you will understand later and add a reference where a note depends on another source.
A practical example
When two people appear before she, replacing one pronoun with a name may remove ambiguity. This illustrates how to begin; the downloadable page is blank so you can use your own subject, materials and observations.
Review before you reuse it
Preserve the writer's intended meaning and avoid assuming a person's pronouns. Read the finished page from the perspective of someone who was not present. Clarify an abbreviation, mark an unanswered question and identify the next small action if one is needed.
