What is expressive pronoun?

An expressive pronoun is a type of pronoun used to emphasize or convey the speaker's feelings or attitudes toward the subject. These pronouns often include forms like "myself," "yourself," "herself," and "himself," and are used for emphasis or to indicate that the subject is performing an action on themselves. For example, in the sentence "I did it myself," the pronoun "myself" emphasizes the speaker's personal involvement. Expressive pronouns can also add a tone of self-reflection or personal significance to the statement.
