Today we will learn the most confusing part of pronoun which is distributive pronoun that we are talking about. 
A lot of confusion is seen in its use among children, today we will try to clear this confusion, 
let's start learning them.  ,,,,

Distributive pronoun, it is a pronoun that gives options to choose the number of person or Things ,,,,  here are the words which come in distributive pronoun is EACH, EITHER, NEITHER, NONE ,,,

I will try to explain them by a chart, I hope you will understand,

DISTRIBUTIVENO OF PERSON-SELECTION
PRONOUN

EACH (प्रत्येक)       - (1)                            - (1)

EITHER (या)         - (2)                            - (1)

NEITHER (ना)      - (2)                            - (0)

NONE (कोई नहीं)  - (0)                             - (0)


NOTE : Based on selection, they have at least one number, they are used as singular distributive pronoun.


The subject verb agreement is always used singular with distributive pronoun.

To understand this rule, let's understand this format.

SUBJECT  + EACH, EITHER, NEITHER, NONE 
SINGULA


AUX VERB + IS /WAS/HAS/


MAIN VERB + SINGULAR 


POSSESSIVE  + HIS / HER /ITS
PRONOUN 



REFLEXSIVE + HIMSELF / HERSELF / ITSELF
PRONOUN 


EX : Each is fine. 

Ex: Neither is working now. 

Ex: Each of them will go there. 

Ex: Neither of the principals has been looking after his college well. 

Ex: Either of the two girls is doing her work. 



They are also used as adjective, if you want to identify them as adjective, then noun is always used after them, subject verb agreement with them is always used by looking at the number of noun if the noun is singular then subject  verb agreement singular is used but if noun is plural then subject verb agreement plural is used ,,,

Ex: Each college has its own banner. 

Ex: Neither books are available in this shop. 

Ex: None students were present in the class. 

That's all about distributive pronoun,,,,,, 
I hope, you will like it
