How to use 'It' as a dummy Pronoun in English Grammar
The Use of Pronouns 'It' and 'There' as dummy subjects help the speaker to start the sentences. 'It' is a dummy pronoun (or dummy subject) when the speaker wants to talk about the
sight,
time,
date,
talk, or any object.
These dummy pronouns as the subjects of a sentence give clarity to the words. It develops a scene or an event to be created in a picture. So the reader or the listener is able to understand the speaker's thoughts.
Examples:
- It was really shocking news for me. Vs
- The really shocking news was there for me.
- It was a dark and stormy night. vs.
- A dark and stormy night was there.
- It was an award that he deserved. vs
- He earned the award.
- It is a far, far better thing than I have ever done. vs.
- I have never done a thing that was far, far better.
- It is extremely impossible for me to do that. vs.
- Doing that was impossible for me.
In another word, “It” and “There”
(Dummy Subjects) are "starters" of your sentences.
A sentence must have a subject. When one isn’t available, the pronouns “it” and “there” fill this position.
Examples:
- It is Sunday today. NOT "SUNDAY IS TODAY."
- It is raining today. (Not “Raining is today.”)
- There is no way, Mike can lose this match.” (Not “Mike can no way lose this match.”)
- Note that dummy pronouns do not refer to anything specific, but just create a “frame of the picture” for the main contents of the sentence.
