Since I didn't want to get too involved in the entry regarding Personal Pronouns pure and simple, I left some things out… Like, for example, the uses of I have, She and Item in English.
Sí, muchas ya estaréis diciendo «pero si es muy fácil y está muy claro: I have for them, she for them, and Item para cosas y animales».
Well no. In this video I tell you why in English we often refer to means of transportation (boats, planes, etc.) as she. Or why Stephen King called his famous work Item, and not I have, despite the fact that Pennywise, that clown capable of giving nightmares to anyone (yours truly here, for sure), clearly has a masculine appearance.
Take a look at the video and tell me what you think, if there is anything that surprised you, etc.
To expand:
Here is an article that explains this whole topic quite well. Although it is in English, remember that it is great for practicing the language, and that you can always resort to ImTranslator to translate words you don't know with a single click. Or complete sentences. Or the entire page, if you want, as I mention in the video:
This other article discusses several theories about why we refer to ships as she in English. Very interesting, and short.
Why are Boats Referred to as “She”? ????
I hope it has taken advantage of you.
Good afternoon!
