The second person pronouns in Odia are used when addressing or referring to someone directly. As with the first person pronouns, there are singular and plural forms.

Third Person[edit | edit source]

The third person pronouns in Odia are used when referring to someone or something that is not present or being directly addressed. As with the previous categories, there are singular and plural forms.

For the singular form, the pronoun is "ସେ" (sē). Here are some examples:

For the plural form, the pronoun is "ସେମାନଙ୍କ" (sēmānaṅka). Here are some examples:

Gender[edit | edit source]

In Odia, personal pronouns also change based on gender. There are three genders in Odia: masculine, feminine, and neuter. Let's see how this affects the personal pronouns.

Masculine[edit | edit source]

The masculine personal pronouns in Odia are used when referring to males or objects considered masculine. Here are the different forms of masculine pronouns:

ସେ	sē	he, it
ସେମାନଙ୍କ	sēmānaṅka	they (masculine)

Feminine[edit | edit source]

The feminine personal pronouns in Odia are used when referring to females or objects considered feminine. Here are the different forms of feminine pronouns:

ସେମାନଙ୍କ	sēmānaṅka	they (feminine)

Neuter[edit | edit source]

Odia	Pronunciation	English

ଏହିମାନଙ୍କ	ēhimānaṅka	they (neuter)

Number[edit | edit source]

Lastly, personal pronouns in Odia change based on the number of entities being referred to. They can be either singular or plural.

Singular[edit | edit source]

When referring to a single entity, the singular forms of personal pronouns are used. We have already seen the singular forms in the previous sections.

Plural[edit | edit source]

When referring to multiple entities, the plural forms of personal pronouns are used. We have also seen the plural forms in the previous sections.

Cultural Insights[edit | edit source]

Understanding the cultural context and regional variations of pronoun usage in Odia can enrich our knowledge of the language. In Odisha, the usage of personal pronouns varies based on factors such as age, social status, and familiarity. For example, in formal or respectful contexts, it is common to use the pronoun "ତୁମକୁ" (tumaku) to address someone, even if they are singular, instead of the singular pronoun "ତୁ" (tu). This reflects the importance of showing respect and maintaining social hierarchies in Odia culture.

It is also interesting to note that Odia personal pronouns can be used as a form of address or endearment. For instance, a parent might use the pronoun "ମାନେଇଷରେ" (mānē'iśarē) to refer to their child as a term of affection. Similarly, friends or siblings might use the plural pronoun "ଆମେ" (āmē) to address each other, emphasizing their close bond.

Practice Exercises[edit | edit source]

Now that we have learned about personal pronouns in Odia, let's practice using them in sentences. Complete the following exercises by filling in the blanks with the appropriate personal pronoun.

Exercise 1: 1. ମୋ ପିତା ମୁଁ ମୋର ସାହାଯ୍ୟ କରୁଛନ୍ତି। (My father is helping me.) 2. ତୁ କଣ୍ଠେ କଣ ରହୁଛନ୍ତି? (Where are you staying?) 3. ସେ ମୋର ଅନେକ କାମରେ ସହାୟତା କରିଥିଲେ। (He helped me with many tasks.)

Exercise 2: 1. ଏହିମାନଙ୍କ ମାତା ଆମକୁ ଦେବେଳା। (Their mother will give us lunch.) 2. ତୁମକୁ କଣ ପଛାରିବେ? (What will you protect?) 3. ଆମେ ସମସ୍ତ ସିନେମା ଦେଖିବୁ। (We will watch all the movies.)

-=== Using Personal Pronouns ===
+=== Number ===
-Now that we know the different personal pronouns in Odia, let's take a look at how to use them in sentences. Here are some examples:
+Lastly, personal pronouns in Odia change based on the number of entities being referred to. They can be either singular or plural.
-* ମୁ ପଢୁଛି। (Mu paḍhuChi.) - I am studying.
+==== Singular ====
-* ମୁଁ ଦୋସ୍ତ ମୋତେ ଖୁସି। (Muɳi dost mote khusi.) - We (inclusive) are happy with my friend.

-* ଆପଣ କେମିତି ଅଛନ୍ତେ? (Apana kemitia achante?) - How are you? (respectful/formal)

-* ତାଙ୍କ ବାଡ଼ୀ ବଡ଼ିଆ ଅଛି। (Taŋka baṛiā achhi.) - They have a big house.
-We use personal pronouns to refer to someone or something without repeating their name, and we must match the pronoun's form to its function in the sentence. Odia follows a subject-object-verb (SOV) word order, so the subject of the sentence comes first, followed by the object, and then the verb.
+When referring to a single entity, the singular forms of personal pronouns are used. We have already seen the singular forms in the previous sections.
-=== Gender and Pronouns ===
+==== Plural ====
-In Odia, unlike many other languages, there is no grammatical gender associated with pronouns. This means that we use the same pronoun (such as "se") to refer to a person, an animal, or an object - whether they are male or female. To indicate gender, we rely on other words in the sentence or context.
+When referring to multiple entities, the plural forms of personal pronouns are used. We have also seen the plural forms in the previous sections.
-However, in a cultural context, people in Odisha may use gender-specific pronouns or names to refer to people. For instance, in polite or formal situations, they may use "Didi" (ଦିଦି) for an older sister or "Bhai" (ଭାଇ) for an older brother, instead of using personal pronouns.
