Intensive Pronouns Practice

Intensive Pronouns Practice

Read each section's instructions carefully and complete the tasks. This worksheet focuses on intensive pronouns, which emphasize a noun or pronoun that comes before them in the sentence. Intensive pronouns end in -self or -selves (e.g., myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves).

Underline the intensive pronoun in each sentence.

1. The queen herself greeted the visitors.

2. I baked the cake myself.

3. The students themselves organized the fundraiser.

4. He built the entire model airplane himself.

5. We ourselves were surprised by the outcome.

Choose the correct intensive pronoun to complete each sentence.

1. She finished the difficult project  .

2. We decided to paint the house  .

Read each sentence. If the underlined pronoun is intensive, mark True. If it is reflexive, mark False.

1. The cat cleaned itself after playing in the mud.

2. I myself will present the findings to the committee.

3. You should always believe in yourself.
