I met Anu yesterday. _____ invited me to her house

Answer: (B)

She

Personal pronouns are used to refer to people or objects that we are speaking about. In case of people, there are different personal pronouns that can be used depending upon whether we are talking in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd person perspective.

In the given sentence, the person being spoken about is 'Anu' and the possessive pronoun used later in the sentence is 'her'.

Therefore, since this person who is a female is being referred to in the 3rd person perspective, the correct personal pronoun to use is option B, She

Option A) 'We' is incorrect as it is used to denote a group of people (plural).

Option C) 'He' is incorrect as it is a personal pronoun used for a male in 2nd person whereas in the sentence it is a female that is been spoken about.

Option D) 'I' is incorrect because it is used in 1st person perspective where the narrator is speaking or mentioning about himself/herself.
