What is a pronoun shift?
A pronoun shift refers to a change in the grammatical person of a pronoun within a sentence or a piece of writing. It occurs when a writer or speaker switches from using one person pronoun (such as "I", "you", "we") to another person pronoun (such as "he", "she", "it", "they") without any apparent reason or without proper clarification. Pronoun shifts can create confusion or ambiguity in the understanding of the sentence, and it is considered a grammatical error.
